I personally would prefer a slightly smaller font on the tips, reviews and such articles... would make them a lot more readable. And also shorter rows of text so that the page wouldn't always span all the way across the browser...

Otherwise than that a great source for information that will hopefully grow even more

I think similar font size as for example this forum has would be a bit more readable (see attachment for comparison).

A nice bit of CSS will sort it out nicely

Those diff balls look good, might have to see if they do a set for the cr diff, dont think they'll go to well in the durango

Yes... Definitely a "shit hot" load of essential information in that review that's required to make the next parts purchase. lol! Even more amusing when you consider Tamiya/TRF actually sells ceramic diff balls. You would think they would be more interested in reviewing those...

And since nobody paid anything in this situation, and they were asked to do the review, that makes it a commercial. Especially considering it's lacking a counter point.

[sarcasm] But keep up the good work!!! [/sarcasm] Whatev'...

Do you ever have anything positive to say?

It doesnt need to have a counter point by way of comparison to another brand of diff ball, its a review, not a diff ball shoot out or comparison, its made clear by the writer that the balls were sent to him free of charge, so theres no lack of disclosure regarding that and he simply stated that the balls gave the diff a smooth feel and the diff did not require much adjustment over a days worth of racing, which is helpful to know as far as settling in periods go, for me after reading it, it meant that when i come to replace my diff balls, i know that those ones are ok to use, i'd assume the tamiya ones are also good, but if theres a major disparity in price, it would mean i can buy the Ghost rc ones without fear of doing my dosh, if prices are close, i would probably still go tamiya

I found the ghost rc review useful and will be servicing my cat sx and xxcr diffs in the coming weeks with these.

Thank you Mr Martin
