I noticed most of the cars in derby worx videos and galleries do not have extended wheel bases. Is this just coincidence or do you believe wheel base length really isn't all that significant?
Also, I have seen other places that recommend packing the hubs with graphite and alcohol mixture. Do you recommend this?
And lastly, I have heard mention of run-in time. Like running the car on a treadmill for a while to break it in. Does that really do anything? If so, and you pack the hubs wouldn't you lose all your graphite?
Thanks in advance.

Packing Graphite is a DISASTER waiting to happen!!!
You burnish graphite in to your hubs for a build-up of a film.
Loose graphite or over application is not a good thing.

The reason that most of the cars you see do not have extended wheelbases is because most cub scout races do not allow extended wheelbase cars.
