for guys who run both USVTA and USGT, how much of a difference are you noticing on your setups on your vehicles?
I am think of just picking up the motor and body and inbetween classes or when my daughter can't race swapping the car over to USGT specs and running right away.
Thoughts?
This would be some xray T3 2012s if that helps.

I also run an open (ball diff) on both ends of my VTA to minimize the horsepower lost in a viscous diff, and to maximize lateral acceleration. The USGT needs more viscous coupling in the front (gear) diff to keep it stable under trail braking into corners.
