And for those who "dont" wish to run diff oils and constantly change them to suit conditions/driving style, "metal gear grease" will work just fine. Serious racers will use oils (and/or ball diffs of course) occasionl or club racers or even bashers may well prefer a standard "fit and forget" grease (as supplied in the RTR's).....

We have had a 40/60 split of customers wanting to just build the diff "once" and never see it again (thats the 40%) and if that suits them what is wrong with that?

Early indications form Losi were that it was not even going to be a sealed unit when it arrived which would have meant grease only but as it turns out they deciedd to make it sealed.
