I tried searching this thread and was surprised there wasn't an answer for this. In 17.5/13.5 1s lipo on carpet the front tire to use are Jaco Black/Purple (or equivalents) because they are more 'consistent' throughout a run. Why is that? Why do you lose steering with 2x Pink or softern compounds less than half way through a run? Someone explained it is because there isn't enough heat generated in the tires in the stock classes so the harder compounds change less than the softer ones. Is there another reason?

At club (when it's run) I usually run a 35 shore front and a 30 shore rear, but at a bigger race I generally run either a 40/32 or a 38/32. All depends on what the carpet decides to do at that particular event. If it's fuzzy with a ton of grip I run the 40 fronts and if it's low fuzz and lower grip I run the 38 fronts. On the rear I always like to stick to the softest two shores on the market, so I can always get as much power to the track as possible. I would rather my diff just take some punishment then have wheel spin. |

I usually run a softer tire all around unless I'm at a bigger race with more then 70 or 80 cars on the track throughout the weekend.

I'm running the Parma Speed 8, and I usually change my setup between mod and stock, not my tires. Once I find a tire combo that works well on the track surface, I don't like to stray away from it too much. I'm thinking of trying the Parma Blackhawks instead of the Jaco's. Last Parma tires I ran were the full dish rim style. Are these new tires better, worse, or the same?

Does anyone running 12th scale outdoors on asphalt know of somewhere that sells large diameter untrued tyres? They seem to be in very short supply which is a shame cause the new generation trued tyres don't grip like I need them to on my track.
