Looking good, nice Brent Thielke inspired paint!

Wow, two 4wd cars, dedicated, haha. You might want to try dying the wheels, it would give you a more consistant color.

Just got some Double Dee buggy tires in today and tried them at my local track and all I have to say is they have some sick traction and are very consistent, cant wait to try them racing tomorrow. Trucks were also dialed.

The bearing blew out in my one shaft one way for my BJ4WE. Can I buy just that replacement part or do I just have to buy to hole thing again?

Hay Andy just giving you an update on the 1/8 scale buggy tires here in Australia.

The tires are great we are currently running them at the Western Australian State Titles and the driver I sponsor (Dale Smulders) has Qualified 2nd for the event tomorrow we start the finals.

Only problem is the soft compounds only last 10 min's.

We realy need the medium compounds as the track gets real hot and we end up with bald tires at the end of a 10 min qualifier.

Any chance later on adding a hard compound to the range for the hotter countries?

Good to hear they are working well down there. We have a harder compound in the works, which I would be willing to be is more suited to your track conditions.

I just mounted some DD's this weekend, I think they were the easiest to mount up, a prefect fit on the wheel.

Nice to hear! Perhaps a post race report?

Ran the Double D's this weekend at the Smactrac in St.Charles Mo (near st.louis) a new track layout and there were 130 entrants, and 16 rounds, it was crazy! Tires worked great, car had an absolute TON of forward bite!

I was at the same track in St. Charles MO. I ran serveral tires Satruday, M3 Holeshots, red X-2000's BK bars. It was one of those tracks that many tires can work on, but I though with the DD's were more consistant and after some 10min practice sessions 3 rounds of qualifing and a main the tires still look new. There were 130 entries 4 heats of Mod buggy, I was TQ and finished 2nd in the main.

Damn, I was just there for Christmas, and didn't even know there was a track.
