Folks, my SCRT10 will be here next Tuesday. I am still REALLY confused as to what body and wheel combo is available for it, that is not the stock Jammin one. I thought I knew, but a few posts have thrown me off. I DO NOT want to use the stock SCRT rimz/tires.
So.....
if I keep the Jammin stocker body, what wheels and offset fits?
If I get a Blitz or SC10 body, what wheels and offset fits?
Anyone want to maybe make an easy list of stuff that works? Combos?
Sorry I am so confused.

Stock body use:
Factory wheels/tires or Proline Zero Offset with any SC truck tire
Aftermarket body (proline and SC10 body fit well) use:
Slash front or rear offset (front will make the truck a bit wider, but will still fit.

What are people liking for medium pack to loamy tracks? I run Goosebumps on my 2wd Blitz and like them. I don't run hardpack or blue groove much. I did once on GBumps and it was totally hooked. I'de love your thoughts pertaining to the SCRT specifically!!
Caliber
Bow-Ties
GooseBumps
What's the play for the SCRT? Does someone want to elaborate on all three? Maybe their individual strenghts?

Thanks for the fast replies regarding bodies/tires.
So if you had to choose ONLY one, what would it be?
Front Slash or Rear Slash?
But, see'ns how I own a Blitz, these rimz will fit too? Doesn't the SCRT come with pins like an SC10? or is it a hex like the Slash/Blitz?
I will be getting a Proline or HPI body for mine.

What kind of tracks are we talking here? Large high speed tracks, or small tight tracks? I would stick with rear offset to allow more steering if you are running on tight tracks. If you are running on large tracks, front offset may be a better choice to add stability.

What type/size of motor are people using in these?
Is it better to go with the long can HV style motor for more torque or will any 540 size motor work as long as the KV rating is high enough?
What other size motors will fit?

12mm hex, just like a slash. If the Blitz wheels are 12mm hex...your good to go.

Blitz wheels are 12mm hex and will work. I do not know the offsets but rumored to be similar to 2wd slash rears.
Blitz body, SC10 body and Traxxas body all have been fitted and pics taken in this thread...
I went with the Traxxas body, Slash front offset Rulux style wheels all the way around and Caliber M3 tires.
The traxxas body does not have drilled holes in it so it should look a tad cleaner for those moments before it goes on the track for a lap.

I contacted Proline and they have no clue if they will be coming out with Jammin SCRT10 size wheel/tires, so I decided to go with the Slash wheel/tire combo. Right now I have Slash rears all the way around (bow Ties), associated SC10 body and the Bradley shock setup to lower the ride height. There is plenty of room between the body and tires so I may try some Slash fronts as well. I also just received my Novak HV 4.5 and MMP which I will add shortly.

I heard they are doing Pro4 at the NitroChallenge in AZ in a few weeks. I may have to bust out the SCRT for that race.
I'm going to run the MMP with the new AE Vector8 motor on 3S.
As far as wheels go, probably Slash fronts since I'd rather take stability over steering any day of the week.
