Picked up two sets of the new Jaco WGT spec tires from NorCal Hobbies last night. Thanks for getting them in guys...
Trimmed one set down to 55mm tonight and produced the biggest mess I have ever made from cutting a set of foam tires. The yellow area of the front tires is really soft...and messy.
Come to think of it. With the yellow band being so soft, how do these tires comply with the control tire specification for the WGT class? With so much yellow, these fronts are at least bordering on being dual compound tires.
Is there a rule change for WGT control tires? I thought the control tires by the various manufacturers were supposed to be based solely on the Lilac compound.
I know...Ask ROAR...
Thanks. Bill
