So I posted a couple weeks ago about the status of the Associated MGT 8.0 as a worthy monster truck to invest in. I don't see a lot of them around, and they are for some reason not even on ebay, not...

MGT 8.0 conversion - maybe.....

Hey all,

So I keep trying out tires for speed runs here and there, and everyone swears by foams, they don't swell up at high speeds, supposedly stick like glue, etc.

No deal. They slide worse than rubber...
