PW,

Are the sc10 and T4 axles the same? Also, we use sc10 REAR hexes all around on the T4 correct?

Paul,
I am very sorry, but I could not see past her cleavage in that video.

Correct

The SC10 and T4 axles are different, but we use the SC10 rear hexes front and rear on the T4.

I emailed customer support and that's just the color that JConcepts calls "Bright White". Offered to switch for yellow but I hate yellow more than off white.

No big deal...

I'll keep using JConcepts tires but not their rims.
I agree they shouldn't be labeled as "bright white" and I've asked for that description to be changed on the Mono wheels.

Dyed the off-white mono wheels orange to see if maybe I could get a coir I'd be happy with. Good news, it turned out perfect!

Blue front wheels
Orange Rear Wheels
White Body with Blue and Orange paint splatter

Should look sick!!!

Going to try out the 3Ds since I like my Double Dees but need some more side bite. Outdoor only hard packed dirt with dust when dry and loam when wet... What compound should I go with? Blue, Green, or Orange.

Looked on the site and couldn't find out what makes the Orange "Outdoor Soft" different than the regular Green "Soft" compound...

Thanks for the quick response. I'll keep an eye out for them.

Do you know if there will be a premount? The premount barcodes on black wheels are perfect and ready to roll

Questions?? Finnisher shells

I was just wondering if there is any plan to release a 'Finnisher' shell for the RC8T CE truggy?

I can get finnisher shells for the rest of my fleet i.e. B4.1, B44.1, T4.1, RC8.2 but nothing for my RC8T CE

It's on the list, but always ends up at the bottom with the popularity of truggy being so low.

Paul,

Im thinking about heading to the Reedy Truck Race this year, was wondering what compound tires would be best for truck. Thinking that Blue Barcodes all the way around would be best, it obviously wont be as hot as the shootout so i dont think Oranges would work well. Your thoughts are appreciated!

I think orange is still the preference. Because the surface is so hard on tires,or even whites?i know a lot of guys run taper pins in silver on front red in the rear,but I prefer the jc tire myself.

Last year they did end up running some softer compounds (blue & green) along with Orange during the heat of the day.

Unfortunately there was/is a delay in production of a part, so we do not have an ETA.
