Well i should be getting some parts this thursday, to mount esc, rx, and antenna. am not going to start on the chassis part yet since i heard mike is making a longer one so i might just buy his, so am waiting to see what happens.

Hey guys, i was just wondering what would be the best tire/rim combo for racing here http://www.rcexcitement.com/index.php?pid=tracks in the outdoor and indoor off-road tracks

Bows or holeshots

mambarustler 09.29.2008 11:35 AM

what size? 2.2? or ? I was thinking of getting pro-line 30series bow ties on traxxas rear jato rims all around. But i dont know if that will be good for racing, any thought, ideas greatly appreciated.

As always the best way to find out the best tires for a new track is to ask the track owner/shop or some of the faster guys at the track. Also ask them what foams to run, but with heavier than average 1/10 scale crt.5 I'd run firm foams especially if you run buggy wheels.

The problem is because of my age (14) my parents are always working, i never even been to the track but i plan on going next summer. So it's sorta impossible to ask what tires they use until I go. I might just get some geolanders for now, I heard there a good all-around tire for bashing and such.

Call up the track and ask

Or get on a forum that the racers go to

bowties or holeshot are pretty much the gold standard for track tires, you could also look at the panther 2.2 komodos those are great tires also.

Bow's on 30's run well on an extended CRT.5 - I have this combo (and so does mike which is enough for me) - For the street Traxxas Anaconda's on 2.8's are my favorate.

ok thanks guys, i cleaned up the front end of the car yesterday lubed the bearings so much smoother. I might clean the rear today, and am not shure what to do next am waiting for tekno to get in there v3 battery tray so i can buy that but, chassis is on hold right now because i dont know what to do make my own chassis or wait for mike's new extended chassis he said he was gonna make.

Got parts today, heat shrink for my lipo is to small so i guess i have to a buy one with a slight larger diameter.
