A bit of guidance needed please.
I have Kyosho 3k and 5k diff. grease. What are you guys running in yours in this 'damp' weather, and why? I race on a high grip astro outside track; TORCH.
What would you use in the summer dry months?
How much grease do you use. I know where the level is when using oil. Is it the same for grease.
Any help appreciated please.

In damp conditions I would always run the ball diff, going to be far superior.

Thanks Roger.
I had completely forgotten about the last time I used a gear diff in the wet. Different car though. Much harder (foe me) to drive.
That said, then I would assume start with 5k in the drier conditions.

Hi Brian,
Yes go higher for higher grip conditions.

Hi Neil.
I thought that was the theory. Thanks for confirming that for me.
