Two different brands. VP use a natural rubber, and Beta uses a synthetic rubber. Both work equally amazing. There will be new VP compounds released soon, if not already.

I sent back 2 Savox for repair. Which Hitech do u like? Need it for 1/8 Buggy or Truggy. Do they need Caps?

VP-Pro Tires take 1st in Sportsman buggy, 1st Pro Buggy, 2nd Pro Truggy at the FSORS.

I used VP-Pro Turbo Trax Ultra Flexx in qualifying and the new VP-Pro Striker 2.0 Evo Ultra Flexx tires in the main event.
They were awesome and lasted the whole 30 minutes.
Available October 1st at VP-Pro USA.

Qualified 2nd and Finished 2nd at Rnd 1 of the 2013 FORCE Series in truggy with VP-Pro Medium Flexx Turbo Trax. There was 228 entries, making this the 2nd largest series race ever in the state of FL.

I qualified 3rd in buggy with VP-Pro Turbo Trax 2.0 Evos but broke a shock shaft in warmup and missed the start. I used VP-Pro Ultra Flexx Blades with the new orange foam inserts in the main event. They are by far the best foam inserts I have ever used. And I reused them after running the 30 minute A-main from last week and they still looked new and did not break down like every other next generation closed cell insert brand of insert I have used before. Look for these October 1st, 2012 at VP-Pro USA.
