Avid B7 Machined Idler Gear Set

New from Avid Racing Concepts is this machined idler gear set for the Team Associated RC10B7 2WD Buggy.  Machined out of self-lubricating plastic so they are perfectly true, they allow the transmission to spin much more freely.  Having tested the gears for a couple of months with huge success, the only time they could strip them was on a very high bite carpet track, with a direct drive, and the gear diff in the highest 3 position.  The way the AE transmission is designed is that in the higher positions you are increasing the gear mesh gap and the removal of the slipper put a lot of strain on them when landing at full throttle.  They were also tested on the same track in Mod with a slipper and there were no issues.
