I'm getting the parts together to build a VTA car but am really getting irritated at all the secrecy concerning the wheels and tires. Roar should know what's going on as they have to approve them. Since it's going to be club racing I'm going to suggest that we go to another tire. Gravity's that are used in USGT might be an already proven choice. Don't like the wheels but the tires sure hold up. My first choice would be CRC WGTR tires as the look would be more suited to VTA. Wheels would be the problem here. I don't know if there are any other wheels these tires would fit on. Anybody else thinking along these lines?

ROAR has absolutely nothing to do with USVTA.
Your club can choose whatever it wishes concerning tires.
Thanks for your opinion.

When and where will the full information on the product be available? Pricing? Outlets?

Don't quote me here, but Proline/Protoform are carried by the big Distributors (Great Planes/Horizon Hobbies), so I'm gonna say, everywhere can get them....

As of ten minutes ago through searches and live chats I can tell you that neither of the companies you listed have any knowledge of the existence of the new tires or will admit to it at this time.

New rims? More inside info???
And yes Horizon and Great Planes will carry them. They probably just don't have an official ETA and/or official info they can give out over the phone yet.
Why would two major distributors that already carry all of Proline/Protoform products not carry these? Don't worry they will be there.
