Arrma infraction 3s blx tires

[DamianRC]

A lot of people who own a Infraction 3s blx say it's a great car. The thing that lets it down is the price of the tires. Given that after only a couple of good runs you are going to have to replace them. At around £60 a full set, it's going to get very expensive.

A lot of folks use GRP S7's or the Hoons knockoffs I don't know how much it costs to get them across the pond though.

£30 plus £19 shipping

Sometimes you just can't win.

However. All is not lost. Thanks to eBay I can get cheapo Chinese tires that do the job.

I have the same problem with hooning in my 700HP Challenger. I can literally burn up a new set of tires in one night and it cost around $250 each to replace them. Same with my 6S Felony. Hooning is expensive.

What is "hooning"?

hoon​

1. To travel at speed in a confined area, do burnouts, or drifting donuts on a public road in traffic ..
2. To show off in a dangerous manner, mostly with a vehicle or engine powered item ..

Personally speaking. I want to go as fast as I can, safely. This is of no importance to anyone else but me. It puts a smile on my face, that is the most important thing in these dark times. If I can say to myself that my little car can do a 100mph, then, job done. It's a little personal non descript achievement.

Oh, I love watching hooning vids I guess. We always just called it ####ing around or showing off. My fav is at 2:30 of this.

I have always wondered why the Camaro boys all liked doing that. I saw a few Camaros do the exact same thing in person. One car sat in a Kmart parking lot for 2 weeks before the kid could afford to have it towed home

Hmmm.... Nothing better than showing your buddies, this is how I spend my hard earned cash.....

I did my share of burnouts, but at the track mostly. I did turn an old set of Dunlops into smoke on a back road one time. They were slicks after that lol.

That was the very reason I sold my felony. I loved that car and the speed but tires were the weak point
