I have the schumacher stadium truck tires in they seem to work best. It depends on your driving style. I have the Front ribs and the spikes and Vee tires for the rear.

Have a couple of questions before making a road trip.
Is 17.5"Blinky"
And what's the realistic motor size for 4wd buggy if you race that class

Thanks and looking forward to the experience.

Yes 17.5 blinky

I'm running a 7.5 in my wheeler. I'm sure with all the traction you can go with as much motor as you can handle , realistically not much motor is needed as there is nowhere really that massive motor will gain you any time

And two weeks later me and EllyMay are going to MoKan Dragway down in Pittsburg for a season finale BIG $$$ CDRA et bracket race

Until there's a big enough crowd to split up 2wd, 17.5 blinky seems to be the best for everyone....

Does anybody have a slipper assembly from a b44, 44.1, or 44.2 I can possibly borrow? Want to try one before spending the money to replace the center gear diff

Well poo. I was going to race Sunday, but alas, no stock motor, and no desire to run stock.

Aaron bring your stadium truck then or I'd run mod if there's enough there but probably still run the 17.5 in it

I have no problem running mod if we have a big enough group to do so and also have a 17.5 class for those who do not want to run mod.

Hate to see ya skip out just cause of some silly thing like stock vs mod
