Dig:

Well first off in comps you cant run rear steer and you loose points for backing up even if it to make a 500 point turn in a corner. That being said, The DIG is there for you.

Allowing you to steer tighter than having 4ws the dig locks the rear driveline allowing no forward motion while you gas your front tires into the turn. Allowing your rig to pivot off the back tires thus causing you to turn, without loosing points.

It also comes in handy on steep downhill, helps keep your ass end from rolling over your front end.

you will have to make one for the wheely king. I dont think there is a kit for the stock trans. there are a few thread on here for home made WK dig systems. If you upgrade your chassis you can go with a r2 trans. has built in dig. great price too.
