Interesting you've all mentioned this situation right now. The past three times I've run my ZX-5 this has happened to me! I ran it for 6 months straight with no problems, now all of a sudden, anything that can get jammed into my spur from the track, finds a way into my gears. Quite annoying. I hate hearing that clicking noise going around the track when I know the rest of the drivetrain is smooth. I've spent waaaay too much time as of late using a hobby knife to clean out each tooth of the spur only to have it happen two minutes into the next run. I thought recently that I might have rebuilt something wrong on the buggy that would have caused this, but I guess not since all of you are having the same problem. I'll have to try out some chassis tape like you've all been doing. Hopefully that helps.
