I would build in std kit form to start with and use the low grip chassis option. 24 or 25T pinion with a 7.5 motor. Diff oil wise I've never used anything less than 10,000wt and on very high grip astro indoor I run 20,000wt.
In the kit you have 2 options for battery types, saddle packs or the new style of battery is the shorty and I would recommend going for this option.
Regards,
James.

I'm well out of date with the tech stuff, I'll be racing indoor on AstroTurf and would like to learn how to build the car, as per kit or with adjustments? The manual says 2k diff oil but I know some of the guys at my club with other cars run 5k. I'm looking at a 7.5t motor, so what gearing? Also what's this saddle or shorty pack for low grip etc all about?
