The question is REALLY only pertinent to your own track. For example, on our clay track, the three tires that work, and in order of best to worst are:

Gold Dirt Webs
Pink Electrons
Gold Bar Codes

Now, on another indoor clay track, with a very similar type clay and everything, these three tires may be the best tires to use, but in reverse order... or maybe another tire entirely.

That's true didn't think about that lol. This is the first time I am actually trying to find a tire for my style instead of going off what the guys at the shop say. I was running proline holeshot tires in the rear and certain parts of the track there rear would start sliding and thats what a couple guys recommended along with the proline ribbed fronts.

My last practice last monday I switched to the Jconcepts Double Dee's and the rear is hooked perfectly now. Just need to find a front tire to compliment the front. The track is outdoor and slightly bumpy and can get loomy and dusty.

I am just about to order the waterfall off of shapeways and need a fan for it. I would like to find one that connects to the battery leads and blows as much air as possible. I saw the muchmore fans but read some negative reviews on amain.

I had a muchmore can on my on-road car and it was fine. If you are looking for the best around look at the r1 works fans of Yeah Racing. You can get them from TQ Racing

The R1 Wurks 35mm fan can not be beat when hooked to 8.4V. It will sound like a jet engine taxying the runway.

Anyone know the difference between associated part numbers 91419 & 7664. Both are 52 tooth diff gears. 91419 is the B5 part number while 7664 was for the B4. I am curious if there is a physical difference between the two........

Do you have a link to the waterfall with fan mount? Are you opening any vents in the body to allow air flow? Thinking that an opening at the front will allow air to flow over all the electronics and help keep everything cooler overal

x100. I ran the R1 on my touring cars... Sounded like I accidentally left my finger on the throttle when the fan kicks on.

Having said that, they are VERY thick... im not sure they would fit on the waterfall. I imagine you might need one with a lower profile? (just guessing)

I could be wrong but I think the b4 had less diff balls(12 vs 14?)
