Compound guide

Not sure who to really ask on this, but after trying out the inner sidewall supports on both 1/8 turf tires and 1/10 Stadium truck carpet swagger fronts, be cool to have some created that fit the 1/10 buggy carpet sized tires, Find it more consistent to put these in versus the sidewall gluing. With stadium truck carpet tires versus sidewall glued set, I only need to drop my dual rate 5% over what I normally run was excellent.

`1/8 E Buggy on our outdoor turf was so much better as well with them installed front and rear due to the resistance to tire fold over front and rear in the swagger and nessis I was using.

For other folks that run smoothie 2 w/ silver compound on indoor clay - what are some of your favorite tire sauces? Do you find yourself having a few on hand as the track changes? I seem to find that after a rebuild the track is much less consistent and changes throughout the day more, and after its been that way for a month or two its more overall consistent and I find myself switching sauces less.

Been trying sticky kicks lately (silver, blue and yellow), and previously liked grip doctor. But curious if some are better than others for smoothie's. Thanks!

I really like TDK Edge or FDJ Silver when I want something a little more aggressive. SXT Baja is a good option too (more on the aggressive side, similar to the FDJ Silver).

I use SXT Baja, Baja(max), and 3.0 as my go to. A lot of time it is temperature dependant. In CNY, the track side temp was 72 degrees, humid. I used 3.0 only. However, durn the colder months when outside temp is below 30 degrees (62-68 indoors no humidity), I will use Baja, or max to get the temp up in the tires, then switch to 3.0 for mains usually.

Has anyone ran the new Arina buggy tires yet? How do they compare to a Kosmos, Recon, and Reflex?

I assume they are meant for tracks with plenty of loose dirt but maybe they work on dry dusty tracks that are hard packed as well……

I used them here on a couple of tracks with different conditions, one that starts off loose but can harden up quickly and groove if you stay on the line.

The other more rough and can take longer for a line to form but still be loose.

Personally I thought as long as thre was some moisture to the track and the surface wasn't too hard, they worked pretty well, pin height from what I can tell seemed to work better when there wasnt' alot of loose dirt / dust, where in those conditions I'd use more like a falcon or dirtbite instead.

Once things harden up though you can slick the tires pretty quick in the green compound even if cool outside.

That seems to make sense to me from what I have understood. Good to know they could burn off quick on hard tracks

Any update on when to expect T7 Turnbuckle kits coming back in stock?

Unfortunately no ETA, but I will try and find out.

I searched the thread and didn't find anything so is there a plan to release 12mm hex Pioneer wheels for modern Stadium Trucks?

Not at this time, but they are on the list to possibly make.

Any plans to offer the Smoothie 2 LP truck tires in Gold compound? The silvers work great on our clay track, but generate a little too much grip and only last a few races. A harder clay compound would be perfect.

Unfortunately the demand is small, so I don't think anything short term. I will pass along the recommendation and maybe something in the future

Hey Paul, any options for SCT smoothies in Gold compound? Silvers are great, but only last a short time at our track.
