When I have watched the few videos of Crossfires on road course, you can hear them losing traction on the tight corners. See, you straightline guys have it easy:-))
Thanks for your feedback! Have fun!
From what I read on the Wavetrac site, they can modify it to suit your needs using optional components. I wonder if Justin(Hustler) tried that, and if that would have addressed the issue he had with it. It is certainly better than the stock open diff., and calling it "garbage" must be disconcerting for the Wavetrac owners here who've invested in it; and guys like me who are still wanting one(I think).
