Default Super Goo is like 1-way diff in R40?

I've recently upgraded from an old Racer 2, to a new R40. During assembly, the instructions call upon this gear lube for the front diff. It's so thick I could hardly believe it was a lubricant. Once assembled, the action is very goo-like, this stuff is the consistancy of pine sap! Is the goo action supposed to limit the action of the front diff, something like a 1-way?

How do I "tune" it? Do I remove some goo for more action, or add a different lube? The instructions say to fill it. Not willing to experiment before I drive it, I did exactly as the instructions say...

i dont know how to tune diffs.. but they have different weights for different responses.. i think they go from 10,000 to 100,000.. juss go to www.towerhobbies.com and type in diff grease. or diff weights. and youll see.
