JQRacing THECar WE 23g centre diff weight

JQRacing have introduced a centre diff weight for the THECar WE kit. The parts was designed to attach to the standard diff cup with the idea behind it is to smooth out the acceleration, and get the power to the ground smoother, maintaining better traction. The weight also means that the inertia of the drive train is higher, which leads to a more stable car that maintains corner speed easier when off power. Also the central location of the weight is beneficial in terms of stability and overall balance, compared to having all of the drive train heavier.
