I just picked up a b44.2 to run at my local carpet track..... I built it identical to cavalieri's carpet setup, minus the 3* rear toe. I cannot get this thing to NOT spin out when Im off throttle in a turn. ive tried different tires, stiffening the front end, softening the rear, reducing d/r and nothing fixes it......any ideas what to look for ? Also, if I stay on the gas through a turn, it pushes like a dump truck. My 2wd buggy has the opposite problem, but its way easier to drive.

When I ran the car on carpet I almost always kept the same setup from clay/dirt, and just put on the smallest spring cups to really drop the car down. I also ran clay compound Proline Ions with no traction compound on them because our track outlawed hard mini pin tires. It was on rails and no one could catch it.

For the 6.5 I would suggest 16-18 tooth with stock spur. Start 16 and check temps, gear up or down as needed with motor temps.
My 7.5 is 21/81 and comes off about 115 after 8 minutes with light boost and stock timing. My track is indoor and has some tight sections.

Does anyone know if the Part number 9933 (Pinion) Will work with the Durango diffs? Also i know that we could use the ASC1731 bearing back when we could get them. Would a 10mm x 16mm bearing work? (ASC1731 is 10mm x 5/8in 5/8in = 15.9~mm)
Thanks!
Thanks!

Do B44.3 gear diffs, front & rear fit on the B44.1?
Just buy the gear diffs and put then on the b44.1? Any mods involved or is not possible?
What parts are needed if a YES! Model number!
