ya the greevo came in i think 4th or 5th broken. That means i beat everybody but 3 or 4 people with a broken truck. And my truck broke in the first 5 minutes of my main so thats says a lot about a drivable truck when its broke.

no i dont have any skillz otherwise i could have won. Its just a drivable truck when broken and it happens to be the best mt for racing when not broken either so its a good combo to have. I think half the race me and george were battling for positions and my truck was broke. I couldnt believe how slow he was driving lol jk. Couple times i hacked ya and im sry about that george but half the time i couldnt steer either because the truck would just dart to the right and i was countersteering it most of the race. Definatly was challenging but i cant wait to see how we do once both trucks are working right.

I'm confused. It's great that they're coming out with the center diff. Since there is only one brake, and it's on the front end of the center diff, how will braking be affected, and what if you have a quick turn? Is there a plan to add a rear brake giving the ability to adjust the front/rear bias? I think I'll play around w/ my buggy and disable the rear brake to see what happens.
Oh, I found this. What a price for what you get! http://www.hobbyetc.com/cgi-bin/item.cgi?part_id=44840

The HR quickturn looks attractive for half the RD price. Let us know how it works out for you.

That's the problem with the Revo center diff as it stands presently.
It won't work with a quickturn, of course, as there would be no brakes at all. And with the stock Revo, you would only have front brakes-no good either. I think it will only work with a new chassis design. One extended fore and aft of the tranny with an additional brake for the rear added. Also, the Hot RAcing quickturn is still more expensive than just making one yourself like I've done.

traxxas hasnt even said anything into details about the center diff. The only center diffs your seeing now are just home made ones. If i know traxxas there gonna have a new diff case along with the center diff to add another brake in the rear. And there is no need for the one way driveshaft if you have a center diff. The main reason of comming out with that driveshaft was because the revo never had a center diff. Im sure traxxas is gonna do this the right way as they have with everything else. I doubt they would leave something as critical as a rear brake out.

sotach whats wrong with you. You should be advertising the rd racing quickturn since your sponsored by them. I wouldnt buy any quickturn unless its the rd one. He has sold hundreds of them, maybe thousands and i have never heard of even 1 going bad. That says something about what your paying for right there. One time buy and im sure the quickturn will outlast the truck.

i would just get the rd racing one. Its expensive now but it never needs maitence and will outlast your truck from what ive seen and heard. Nothing against bruces cuz it works well but with the rd one its a one time thing. Just buy it and your done.
