Any plan on Splitters for front 4wd buggy?

Okay, so I am hung on the new black and silver compounds and need help with compound choice from someone who has tried them.
I have always run either gold or SS, but am having trouble with them at a new track. This track has a wet clay surface, slicks are hooking up, but gold barcodes no longer have any traction if they have any tread. Any suggestions on what compound to try? Going to be running dirt webs and barcodes. |
^ Green or black compounds.
Dirtwebs front, Bar/brocode rears; or DW all around should be a good place to start. However, I have seen track surfaces like that sometimes only like slicks. In that case, use the green compound. Just raced on a track really similar to what you described. Dirtwebs front/barcodes rear were good; as were slicks. The latter you just have to try to find out. |

What is the best front buggy tire from JC, is it still the barcode? Also is there anything out to compete with the scrubs at the moment.

It will not be a Finnisher body, but from what I understand it will be as close to release as possible.

Cab forward bodies have proven to aid in the aerodynamics on these super high bite tracks of today. Not going with a cab forward design would probably be a step backwards, tbh.

But that doesn't mean I have to like it:sneaky:. I would GREATLY prefer to have a cab rear body & neat, well designed front wing. This is a perfect exmple of what I'm talking about: http://www.teamxtreme.co.uk/wp-conte...ple/oople4.jpg p.s. if anybody ever started importing these I'd be very interested in one :nod: |

They have put diesel (:weird:), cal mag and sugar beat juice in the clay and they have decided to start running it wet. Slicks are hooking up, but gold barcodes no longer have any traction if they have tread. Any suggestions on what compound to try? They typically run ions in front and subs in rear... (but now slicks). Going to be running dirt webs and barcodes. |

I have some new gold dirt webs to try out this weekend. I am thinking they will be good for that surface. I have never been a fan of slicks!! I have not tried silver or black yet, but what I have heard about the new silver is good just a tad bit softer than gold but it breaks in faster.

Does Jconcepts have a Stadium Truck Body that fits the DEST210?
|
Man i would love if you guys came out with a Soft or Clay compound 2wd Staduim truck Flip out tires ! I been running the Green Flip out tires on a carpet track on the Rear end.
And they work great and last a decent amount of time with a firmer tire insert . And still work fine with the with the middle tread worn down. |
These dirt webs are the real deal. Turned quite a few heads to boot. Better get a steady supply of these to all hobby shops In Sacramento and the Bay Area :nod::nod::nod:
