Alot of tire questions... - Ponch - 05-02-2006
Should i invest in a set of boa c's now, or wait until next indoor season? I'll only get to go to the track one or two more times until it goes outdoor.
On another note, what'll be the choice outdoor MT tire/foam in your opinion?
Also, is it worth cutting the RE foams to fit inside the boas or should I stick with the stock foams?
Opinion on new skinny bowties? What foams?
Thanks in advance.:joy:

I had no luck with the stock boa foams. Mine didnt even last a day of practice before they were completly shot. Im putting racers edge foams in my next set. Im gonna run the boa c's and new bow ties outside.

Yeah, I remember those, nothing but air in 'em....How did you like the new bowties for indoor?

Boa foams are good. Panther unfortunatly had a bad batch that were distributed. The new batch is good and shouldnt have any problems with them. alot of people have had good results using "C" Boas outdoors. Maybe try a set of soft ot M/S Boa's.

bow ties indoors were ok. They had a little to much slide in them compared to the boa's. I drove a little bit on leisures outdoor track and those tires were just hooked up.

the only tires u will need for outdoor are proline Bowtie MTs and proline Crime fighter MTs dont even bother with anything else....the results at all the big events can speak for themselves

If your racing at LH it looks like that might be a loamy track...... Id run bow ties

Alrighty then! I already have a worn down set of old bowties, a 1 run set of 40 bowties, and now I'll pick up a set of the small bowties.
What foams for the new bowtie mt? RE?
Alot of tire questions... - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 05-03-2006
go with the RE or proline Greys they will last longer

what would be better? to drill holes in the tires or rims? im thinking it would be the tires?
Alot of tire questions... - Ponch - 05-03-2006
I'm thinking tires. I'm not confident enough yet to drill my tires yet though.

geta leather punch .... It works flawlessly

How much are they?
Alot of tire questions... - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 05-03-2006
Free! I use a small diameter brass rod. I filed the edge until it had a sharp bevel edge. Back the tire with a soft piece of wood and a sharp tap with the hammer drives it right through the tire and tape (if you used tape).

good idea dave
Revo.... Go to the dollar store... Ive heard they can be had there in the crappy tool section.... Otherwise ive heard people pay 15 bucks for one!
Alot of tire questions... - Ponch - 05-03-2006
Haha I don't think my dollar store will have 'em but I'll check.

Has anybody noticed the holes in the tires ripping or tearing etc? How do you patch up the hole in the rim if it comes predrilled?
