Stripped, wornout, or just plain done for?

I have had my Nitro Rustler since christmas of '06. I have run 1gallon,1quart though it and the diff on the a$$ end is acting weird(I think).
When both tires are off the ground, on a leval table, I have to turn one wheel a complete revolution before the other wheel will catch.
Is this normal or is my diff done for???:\

P.S. When I do run it, it is for friends and is ALWAYS doing wheelies, so there is alway lots of strain in the diff!

well its possable for it to be stripped. i stripped mine on the 3rd run. just take it apart and look in it. there are only 3 gears in the tranny case.

do you notice any difference when driving it? If not I wouldn't worry about it too much.

I agree with rcnut143. (If it aint broke dont try to fix it)

It seem like when I hammer the gas the moter revs for 0.10 of a sec the it "clicks in" and really takes off!!

Open the diff up and look around. If a gear is stripped it will be very obvious.
