I agree that the team drivers of most of the major manufactures all use ball diff's except Rango's ( do they make a ball diff ? ).

Reason is ( again IMHO ) you can make it slip a little without taking the whole diff apart and changing oil !

The only reason for a gear diff is lack of maintence to RTR vehicle
Ball diff's are for racing !
