Any chance we could see a return of the 3D's? I run on a hard, dry, sometimes dusty outdoor clay track and green 3D's were absolutely dialed. I wish JC still made them for 1/10 buggy.

I've never compared them, but in theory should be close.

Unfortunately no, sales/demand numbers were just WAY to low :(
In that case, what would you say is the difference between the original DD, the DDv2, and the sprinters? Where does each excel and when would I want to use one over the other? |

Thanks, was looking at your tire chart but appears they have not updated for new Aqua compounds.

We do have a compound chart with Aqua - Click Here
The DDv2's have more pin spacing and should be better on really dusty or damp slick grooved tracks. Sprinters seem to be better on grooved tracks with dust on top or abrasive and dusty tracks. Sprinters should also wear better than DDv2. Sweet thanks, appreciate the support and all the great racer support your company puts out |
What JC tires are made currently in the Aqua 3 or Aqua 4 compound?

Anyone got experience on office style carpet? if so, for 2wd and 4wd buggy, is the hot setup the fuzzbites front and rear or the nessi's rear and fuzzbite fronts? If fuzzbite fronts, on 4wd do you still glue the sidewalls?

Great majority of jc 1/8 tires on amain been on backorder. When can we expect them to be reupped?
Also, what happened to the 1/8 diamond bars? |
Anyone seen any Smoothie Buggy rears in stock anywhere?

Did JC really discontinue the F2 lightweight body for the 22 5.0? Can't find one anywhere including the JC website no longer shows the lightweight version as an option...?

So getting ready for the Jcon Nats at Thunder Road RC Raceway this weekend wanted to work on getting a setup for 4wd buggy that didn't require gluing the sidewalls of the 4wd fuzzbites front. Did use 18m cut foams. I ended up going from a AE V2 Red front spring and 600cst oil (1.6mm pistons x 2) up to AE V2 orange springs and then eventually some Custom Works 6lb front springs, 700cst oil. This really calmed down the front end ( I also went up on the diffs, but did this with the starting red springs).
As I like a bit more consistency than gluing, I was wondering if any grinding of the outer pin area of the tread has helped in that cutting down on grip roll on these, and if so, how far in on the tire are you doing this? These tires are also already glued up so no usage of the sidewall stiffeners possible if those help, but curious none the less. |
