You can actually run a motor under water.
You can actually run a motor under water.
An unsealed motor would develop a number of problems:
- rust and corrosion when you return to air
- break-down of anything water-soluable fibre insulators (if any)
- voltage leak in anything other than de-mineralized water
- leaching of lubricants
- attacks by large octopuses
Okay, I made that last one up.

Have you locked the diffs? I don't have a TLT-1 but apparently that just makes it wheely rather than spin.

well funny you should mention locking diff's and all. i locked the txt-1 with bubble gum and it works great. however the tlt-1 has the strangest center diffs i have never seen before so i'm not sure how to lock the center diff. until i figure it out locking the f/r diff won't solve my problem..........[&o]

Balact Man, I would not recomend bubble gum to lock your diffs. and also if you do a search on locking the diffs on your TLT you will find there are many threads on that here.
You shouldn't just screw it down hard beause you will just strip it anyway. Some people use small screws to screw the plats together or you can use jb weld or Hot glue. Just be sure that it is even and ballanced. You should lock your front nd rear diffs by using the method where you take one of the cone type gears and flipping it to the other side. It's listed somewhere in the Rock crawling section. do some searches... Hope that helps...

RE: BEST CRAWLERS OUT THERE
i tightened the scew, stripped it and then i drilled 4 holes in it, took 4 screws and than i screwed it together, now i'm able to make wheelies!!!! (19 turns....)put spacers in one end of the car because it leaned to much, i don't lock the other diff's cause it is my basher
