maybe its my setup.. but Ive found using the reg D-compound which is what Ive been running is better on carpet...and the pros/belted are better on asphalt...
every race ive been in over the last few years Ive used the pre-mount or d-compunds...when Ive put the pros on, I end up with way to much traction and just flipping the car
and if Im not mistaken, they are the same as the VTA tires, as far as d-compound material
#4490 - X-PATTERN RADIAL TIRE 26mm PRO COMPOUND (2pcs)
#4495 - X-PATTERN RADIAL BELTED TIRE 26mm PRO COMP (2pcs)
#4790 - X-PATTERN RADIAL TIRE 26mm D COMPOUND (2pcs)
these are the tires I will be running at the USVTA Southern Nats in Sept...

Yea I thought it was just the 17.5 D3.5 but was told all D3.5s were illegal at southern nats.
But the crappy part is my 3 places I buy 21.5 motors from ONLY sell the D3.5 based motor ...
The schuur speed isn't roar approved .
The revtech 21.5 r not found new (unless I piece one together)
The reedy don't have the open cooling design I'm looking for
The Novak .... Well I just don't know . I haven't been impressed with there motors in a long time
A orca or kill shot would be great but haven't seen either yet

Also let me be clear, this is a USVTA event, where USVTA RULES are KING, not because Rob last name or me being the KING OF VTA....simple humor..lol..don't take me serious..please don't..Im no Eddie
but if your area is using ROAR rules for VTA, that's fine and I hope it grows...but what Ive seen over the last few years is proof that the USVTA rules work and honestly, get more ppl at the event....
The ROAR asphalt and carpet nats have a good following, but neither compare to the Scale or Southern Nats...in numbers or ppl willing to travel....now of course the entry is higher, and that may play a small roll....But coming to an official USVTA event, you eliminate the guess work or worry...20+ states submitting entry into the Southern Nationals 2 years in a row cant be wrong...
so for you to say it dosent make sense, well to those of us running VTA from the beginning, says differently
also...a USVTA car won the ROAR races too....

But I digress... I don't really care about that race specifically as I am not attending, I was just making sure that the motor is typically allowed "in general", as there may be other races that I DO make, and that is the only motor I can run.
