Alright everybody,

I have a T4 and it does not feel good to me. What kind of tires are best for clay indoor type tracks? What setup is best for indoor clay?

try putting holes in your body where the esc is and at the rear of the body.. let some air through..

Ask the fast guys at the track.

Clay generally equals gold barcodes, MC suburbs, or pink taper pins. but its all matters if its indoors, or outdoors, the temp is important, how well watered it is, lots of factors.

we are running orange front and blue rear Barcodes at our local track in STL, high-bite clay that is smooooooooth, I also run stock foams......the tires are very good

as far as setups are concerned, we only run the CRCRC lightweight setup with a few minor changes.

as stated above, pink losi compound, mc suburbs, and gold barcodes. the tapers last very little time though. i would look towards a bk bar if going losi. ive been seeing some good life form my tires, depending on the tracks conditions day to day. i have yet to try the suburbs though.

Anyone know where I can find the bleeder caps (6443)? Fleabay came up blank, Tower, Amain, Stormer, LA Parts House....all out of stock. I was under the impression they have been released already but looking at these sites it seems that they aren't available yet. Any love?
