My friend won a set of those at the grand slam race, they are BSR purple orange, which felt like a very firm tire. I am not sure what class they would be aimed at.

It is very difficult to gear a defective motor.

I might be looking at the wrong place...but at the snowbird website, at the result...races like the Trans-Am A-main are all crossed out and said DID NOT RUN....and alot of B-Main are the same...where can I find the result of those races..? Or...they did not run the A-MAIN of VTA for some crazy reason..(I don't believe so cause I save Nash's pictures and somehow Robk did not get the top 3 and wondering why...)

Thanks....
