Very likely, but until he actually does, he's to be considered innocent - and even if he finally does turn out to be scammer and is reported as such, nothing will be done (for various reasons). So all in all, replying makes at least as much sense as reporting at this stage.

You just fill out the report saying it's a bot and submit.

Technically post running is against the rules.

We're talking about a single post here. I do report it, when people make several such useless posts, as it is very obvious then what's going on there. With only one such post, although being likely that it's a just another scammer's account, there is no proof for that. But again, feel free to report them as well. I'll decide for myself on what I report and what I comment/answer instead.

Can anyone explain the difference between Ulti 270s and 277s? They both come in "soft" and "medium" and have the exact same description.

This is like being in school, the teacher asks the class a question, and you stand up and say "I don't know but that question was stupid!"

The only information I found is that the 270 has more grip than the 277. but both have more grip than standard tires.

No, not really- If that were true, it implies that you already knew the answer. I think the advice, although rather frank, wasn't wrong.
However, I do understand the simplicity of asking for first hand advice here.
Ulti's website does have a link that invites you to enquire.

A minor mention on the attached PDF that 277 is better on asphalt and 270 on carpet.

Hey guys, not exclusive to 12th scale but I have a Hudy automatic tire truer that stopped working at the last race. It will bump the main motor when hitting the switch, but wont do any more than that. I replaced the switch with a new one, it worked twice (10 seconds no load) once back together and is now back to the same. I reached out to Hudy and they are recommending to send it to a dealer. Anyone have experience with this or thoughts if it could be circuit board or motor? There are no "burn" signs on board or bad smells coming from any components.

Thanks
