tire question - 02-28-2007, 09:34 PM

what are the best tires to use on the indoor track @ leisure? I picked up some bow-tie's and am wondering if they will help keep the xxx-nt right side up?

Probably not indoor, they'll be good outdoor though. I liked my Losi Pink tapers when I ran them on the rear with losi pink ribs up front.

But hey that was at the old track, I read guys are running the pink tapers on all 4 corners, correct me if I'm wrong somebody.

Pink tapers on all 4 is supposed to be the ticket. I ran ribs up front at the old track.

The best tire to run for 1/10 scale at LH is the C compund stinger and C compound multi rib up front. Panther Tires rock at this Facility!! That is if you want to keep up with the fast guys

for truck Chad, not buggy......


I had edges (ribs, whatever) up front on my truck and swapped them out for a pin type tire. It was much more consistant and less twitchy with the pins up front.
Ribs pushed and when they finally grabbed they oversteered.

But I was never even close to the times LOCO was laying down so I would go with what he says....lap times don't lie.


Having fun again!!!!

King ran stingers , I was his pit bitch and took the switches off because he liked the stingers better . More of a personal preference , i do know the stingers need to break in before they are good .
