Mugenite......Yes at the micro touring and off road nationals we run mod classes using both rubber and foam tires depending on track layout that year. Two years ago we ran rubber Lois street treads because the jumps were big and you needed the cushion of the tire for landings.....last year the fast guys used cut foams because the jumps where low and the track layout was fast.......
If you guys are looking for more speed go to CastleCreations.com and pick up the new 9600kv motors that we have also for micros this year.....They are super fast..........

Just want to give a ticker tape parade to one of PA's own......"Jamie Lepley"....for going out to the short Course Nationals in CT. last week and taking home the win in the Micro 1/16 Slash class....Congrats Jamie....

Sounds like it came down to who could crash the least for the main because the track was beat out due to all the rain that they received that weekend....
These little guys have a hard time on 1/8 scale tracks but it can be done.....Second went to my Castle team mate Tom Loranger......Thanks to all the micro guys that were able to make it out to this event.....

Let me see.....I believe it took the Owl, one ah, two ah, three licks to get to the center.....But for me I always just opened the wrapper and bit right through that "Sucker" because I simple love those Tootsie Pops.....My favorite being the chocolate ones..... with grape close behind in second....... I'm a racer, what did you expect.........
