I’m racing my Ten-SCT on Pegasus Hobbies in Montclair, CA. The track is dry (constantly being watered but the track absorbs the moisture quite fast), not exactly perfect with quite a bit of bumps, dusty. I’m currently using Proline HoleShots and Snipers both with soft compounds (M3). Any suggestion/s for better tire/s for this particular track?

What do you guys think of Proline Bow-Fighters and their new Blockades?

Thank you for all your suggestion/s and input/s.

Give some Gridirons or Enduros in soft compound a try. Try supersoft if traction is low.

The Aka's for SC are much more consistant than the PL stuff.

I love AKA tires, it's all I run on my SCs. I just wish they had another choice besides Rebars for 2WD buggy.

I have a lot of experience running there is most conditions. At the last JBRL Casper, Aaron, and I all ended up on supersoft enduros and they were fantastic with very little wear.

...thank you very much for all your tire suggestions =) I really appreciate all the help!

I ended up purchasing soft Enduros. Unfortunately, they didn't have stock on super soft compound =( ...I hope it won't be too bad though and that it'll still be an improvement to my previous tires.

Thanks again!

In my experience the Super Soft have a little more traction but wear alot faster than the softs. I think you will be happy.

It boils down to outside temps...higher temps use soft, cooler temps super soft.

I ran Soft up front and SS in the rear. As temps start to drop at night out there I think SS will be better but S will last longer.

I snapped the Jammin Product Carbonfiber Rear shock tower.
I will admit tho, i was pretty rough on the truck. But I will never buy Jammin product products for the losi again.

I have a TLR kit on the way. Hopefully these will be a bit stronger.
