Any update on when the 2.2 truck goosebumps will be back in stock? They have been out of stock for a couple months now.

These are about the only loose dirt truck tires on the market. I wish there was a little more selection for stadium truck on outdoor tracks.

Be cool if those sirens asnd drop steps could be offered in a dirt compound.

Thanks for the reply and recommendations, RossKo. Wish listed a pair of Siren. Amain doesn't list the lockness. Went to the JC website and found them. They look even better for my application. Both are under consideration for now. Looking like my sprinter will have to accept a low profile tire as that seems the trend now.

Ribs up front give me a push on my track. Found that true with both 2.2 Buggy/ST and 2.2/3.0 SCT ribs. So pins, blocks or spikes up front are the go-to. Perhaps when JC weighs in they'll have a buggy front recommendation. Much prefer the narrower 2wd buggy front over the wider 4WD front.

Cheers. -AC

Buggy-sized maybe look into a Siren front and rear. The 4wd front sirens may be a hair chubby but may be what you want on 2wd standard front wheels. Drop steps on rear could also be a great option.

Unfortunately I don't have any experience running on natural grass, but I would think the Drop Step or Siren to be a good choice in the rear. As mentioned, we don't have a full pin style slim 2wd front, so you would could go with a Swagger or Swaggoo. Or you could get a little more aggressive and use a standard width 2wd front wheel with the Siren 4wd front tire, which fits nicely

Unfortunately not sure of ETA on the Goose Bumps, but I do see they have them on order.

There was a little easter egg in this RC10T body release that might be something to watch for

Thanks, guys and of course Paul for the recommendations. Have a pair of 2.2 Drop Step on order for the rears and Dirt Tech front inserts for the fronts. Went with a competitor's pair of tires for the front. Only because my sprinter build will class as a 2.2 'midget' on my grass track and want narrow section fronts to maintain a realistic look. Cheers and best regards. -AC

[ Edit: And, oh yeah also on order is a JC 17T brush motor. This is a brush motor build with an ages old 19T Reedy in it now. Figure the newer 17T will add a bit to its performance.]

If those wheels come out for the T6.4 I will lose my mind. They look so damn cool.

Does anyone know if the tire balancer will work with T6.4 offset wheels?

Few questions on some 1/8 tires:

- When do you find you go with Relapse versus Rehab
- How often do you find that id you end the day on A2 Compound, that you start on Green or is it Blue more common
- When will the Kosmos for 1/8 be up ro actually order?

- Relapse seem to have a little more on-power traction when the track is slightly dusty and the Rehab seems to hold the corner a little better for more cornerspeed.
- That all depends on track conditions; is it cooler in the mornings, did they water at night or in the morning, etc...
- I'm assuming you are referring to the truggy Kosmos? They are in route and should be available soon. Buggy Kosmos are currently available.

Quick comment here for the JConcepts website Blog. Esp. the weekly Race Team Update. My go-to for oval track results around the country. Like the listing of JC products used too,

Keep on keepin on. Happy 4th. -AC

Default B84

How are those B84 bodies coming along? F2 & P2 first? S2 & S15 too!?

(I know the B74 bodies fit ok but I’m looking for a tighter fit as I run in dusty conditions some days).

Any chance of a P2 coming for the TLR 22x 2wd?
