  1. Bashing
It has rained for 20 of the 25 days this month so far, and i got fed up waiting. Decided to take out my Nitro Sport during a little dry window. Went to a local ball park and ran around the infield, with the occasional sprint to the outfield to chase the birds. I like it better dry, only because being wet, the tires grabbed a bit to well in the turns. Anyhow, here are some pics.. Gotta get to cleaning!

Awesome! The tires look like the "IMEX 2.8 ALL T WIDE"

On Traxxas 2.8 twin Spoke Rims

Good eye Rustlerx350, that they are!

They are GREAT in the dirt/sand/grass, but provide minimal traction on asphalt. I have an RPM tower out back, with Traxxas Big Bore shocks and stiffer springs. Everything else (with the exception of the tires) is stock. Any suggestion for the fronts?

One note on the IMEX's out back: They are extra wide, and seem to weigh a bit more than your average tire. Therefore, acceleration is adversely effected. It seems that it takes maybe a full second longer (give or take) to reach top speed compared to other 2.8's.
