I sure want to see if the new tires are the same as the old tires as far as traction. If they are better, then I'm throwing out my old ones. If they are worse, then I'll hoard the old ones until they are worn to the nubs. Best case scenario is they are exactly the same.

my testing says they are very close to the same once broke-in...good news is our track has the most ridiculas traction most have ever seen...and Im not gluing the sidewalls like the HPI....5 races and lots of practice and no glue...great work PF
no carpet tracks in Arizona.....so, gluing takes away traction?

Our testing has shown they are right on pace with HPI. No sidewall glue needed on black carpet as Myron said, which is a plus. On asphalt, they may take a few runs to break in but just keep applying additive (thinner additives like mighty gripper, SXT 3.0 etc work best) and grip will start to come up.

They do need to be glued for asphalt racing right?
