(Resolved) Troubles getting buggy to drive

[Nitrotrout]

I admit it.. I did it. I built a 1/8 buggy for a friend and I'm pretty sure I put the diffs in upside down. It was pretty entertaining watching him drive backwards and he got pretty good at it.
That's all I got to say about that..

You're tempting me to "accidentally" do it myself now...

Most of us have only had one dif at a time out for repairs, then end up playing tug of war with it.

I once tried pulling myself on a skateboard with my buggy, it seemed a good idea at the time and it worked- until the clutch literally got smoking hot and the stock plastic shoes melted (Don't worry I have a nice new 3 shoe one now- I was going to replace it anyway)

Why were you wearing plastic shoes? Good leather soles would have worked out much better.
