Busted a 10 stepper tonight...

[KMN]

Little brick that could...

10 steps, medium to half throttle... sucked it up.(About 8 times, before I got bored and started flipping over speed bumps... parking lots kick ass...!!)

BTW, Road Hawgz suck. NO traction whatsoever.8-0

yeah, i tried road hawgs, they blow , all road tires pretty much blow on trucks i think , i just use a low pin setup . losi taper pins or bow ties are nice .

I coulda told you that. Your better off putting the 4-tec wheels and tires on your truck.

They are the only tires I have right now... and I'm broke... so no new tires in the near future either...

On a side note, for concrete, the fronts seem to handle well...

 

[SilentHunterKellen]

Thats what my friend does. He puts Road Hawgs on the front and Gladiators on the back. Seems to work well. Till he goes off-road.But my worn down stock tires seem to be good slicks...lol.

I prefer some nice ribs for the front, and some good spikes for the rear...

until I hit the street, or let a friend take the wheel...

"Dude, those tires that your burning on the street cost 15 bucks a set..."

The gladiators? My friend runs em. not me. He is an idiot. He runs the truck with all the A-Arms loose and with nitro all over his reciever.

What? That's gotta get expensive... replacing the RX and all...

I prefer DirtWorks... good for just about everything. I used Trac-Ta-Gators on the electric one and was going through tires left and right(Back to the friends tearing up the street thing), so I started using dirtworks.

Wouldnt Dirt Hawgz Be better? THey have deeper treads..i think.

I think I meant to say DirtHawgz, I get the two confused.

Whichever ones have deeper tread are the ones I use, I like a nice medium compond Losi rib for the front.

Broke an arm today too... front left arm. Stupid poles... stupid speed, stupid hardware store with a 15 step set...

It took it well the first six or seven times, until my brother took the wheel and veered straight into the ominous pole that was about 5 feet away...

Oh well, RD here I come, now I gotta decide which color... I'm eventually gonna get their chassis too...
