Default RE: Ball Diff vs. VXL Diff for Rustler?

ORIGINAL: Banzai240

I'm building up a Rustler for thrashing, and possibly some local racing, and was wondering what most people use for diffs? I was considering getting an adjustable Ball diff, but was also looking at the steel geared planetary diff from the VXL...

Which would be preferred and are there any other options to consider?

Thanks,
For racing, the ball diff would be better since it's tunable. Also having steel gears adds rotating weight, which reduces acceleration.
