JConcepts Thread
PW Paul, are we going to see the 8th scale double bar tires and p2 bodies available prior to worlds? I’m especially excited for the tires, the hot tire at one of my local tracks is the Lux, but I prefer JC rubber.
Talking to ROSCOE who has ran the PR cars, he was using 12mm AE offset wheels
PW - I noticed at the recent e-nats lots of guys were using ellipses when the track was really wet. I was a bit surprised as I've always thought ellipses were indoor tires and something like Double Dees were the recommended tires in those conditions. What guidance would you offer for someone racing in the same conditions regarding bars vs pins on outdoor dirt?
Has anyone tried grinding down the Swiper buggy tires into a slick to use on clay? I know they're meant for oval but the thinner sidewall got me wondering how well they may work for off road as well, I'm tempted to get a set to try myself but I thought I'd ask if anyone else tried it first to give some feedback before I go spending the money on them
Any thoughts on Swaggers vs Swaggoo, PW or anymore else? As always, your input is highly appreciated!
thats pretty much what I am seeing. I have been using them on EOS Carpet for a few days now, kind of settled on these due to the steering characterstics. I feel they have better steering in comparison to a slim pinswag on EOS offroad carpet. Wear has so far been pretty good as well. I could see these being a great control tire that if Jconcepts could make a non-directional rear along the lines of the fuzzbite (maybe a bit more pin) could be very nice for a class like that. AKA appears to have done that idea basically with there rear Rivet.
