I think that the waffles would be a great tire on smooth clay.

Similiar to slicks.

Nailed it. Suprised pre-trimmed bodies aren't the norm. Same ole **** for the past 25 years.

How about a dirt proof receiver case for my Spektrum SR3000, have it snap open/close-no screws.

I think I'm going to go old school and throw a balloon on it.

Will Have some new pictures for everyone in the next few days! This last weekend was a great showing for the Scrubs 2WD front tire at OCRC raceway. Jared Tebo used our tires to TQ and win modified 2wd(front scrubs, rear suburbs) Cav won Mod 2wd truck with Suburbs, and Tebo used Suburbs in 4wd mod as well. Everyone that I talked to that ran our new tires loved them! I am very happy that everyone is still supporting the thread and TRUST ME... Pro-Line is going to sweep the 1:10 world very soon Lots of new products on the way, some that will suprise many

Once again thank you for your interest!

How about BLACK wheels for 1/10 2wd and 4wd buggy, whats up with the yellow crap, the 80's are over.

I'd like harder compounds in all tires and premounts on black wheels. MX holeshots would kill my local track, hard enough for the groove but pinned enough for the fluff that comes up at the end of the day. 2 stage foam in tire packages.

Thicker lexan for the wings of buggys.

Sponsor local drivers at local tracks with a 50/50. Make a database so those drivers can get on and submit what tire in what class worked or didn't work for them, so if you are traveling to a track, you can show up prepared.

I know it's 1/8 scale, but whoever makes the first quick change battery mount for an electric pit stop is going to make a lot of money. preferably something with a split body so you don't have to take the entire body off. (less to fumble with, get hung up on shock towers, etc...)

I know what I want to see is, "Half price tire day sales!" Or $5 dollar pairs of buggy rears.

My wish list:

12mm Hex wheel conversion for the SC10 (keeping within the ROAR legal limit)
or
Pre mounted SC tires / Split Six wheel selection to fit the SC10

Lighter weight beadlock rims (great idea, current ones are just too heavy)

Now for the cool stuff. You guys make such great scale parts for crawlers, how about something for us SC guys that want our race trucks to look realistic?

A plastic, lightweight roll cage for the SC10, Blitz, Kyosho, Slash, etc. that is similar to the one that comes stock with the Associated SC8. That would be incredible. There are only heavy, steel ones on the market now that are out of the question for racing. A light, functional cage would allow the windows to be cut out and look much more scale.

Maybe even a realistic, detailed "interior" for SC truck bodies with a molded driver figure that you could paint.



Thanks for the open forum- you guys make great products.

I second the vote for 12 mm hex for the sc10 and second the vote for a realistic roll cage. Please keep it light. could you also bring back the moab tire for 1/8 buggies?
