Dry-lube your CV axles
| Lubing your CV-type driveshafts with grease attracts dirt, which makes them hard to clean after running the vehicle at the track. Instead of grease, use powdered graphite to lubricate the driveshafts. The dry lube will not attract dirt. Powdered graphite is available at most hobby shops that carry pinewood derby cars, or you can check the locks and door section of your local hardware store. |
