Been playing VRC lately but don't know much about onroads. Can somebody please school me in onroad tire lingo.

What the heck is shore? and whats the difference between a 3-ring design and Multi-ring design?

Shore is a measure of hardness. Higher the number the harder.

Not sure about the rings.



Mr T
 
start off around 40 shore rear 30mm width, and 45 shore front 26mm width. multi-ring compounds I'm not up on since i run electrics. for our front tires we have a harder ring on the outer edge of the tire to help prevent traction rolling. not sure if this same setup applies to nitros.

otherwise how do you like the game, are the physics realistic enough that it helps driving skills.
 
seems pretty realistic to me. I've never run a nitro on-road so I don't have anything to compare it too but I have learned quite a bit as far as basics are concerned... things like speed and depth perception, stuff that pertains no matter what you race.

thanks for the info man :thumbup:
