R/C is behind me now but I like to pop in now and then to see how things are going and i could not be happier.
A big thanks to Scotty at Trackside for trusting and hosting the first races. Thanks also to Doug, Rob and all the other visionaries that kept things progressing and taking the concept National.
I hope you all continue to enjoy VTA.

Hi guys , I have just purchased some new VTA rims and tyres and I noticed the tread pattern to be different to the ones I had many years ago. The old ones were a zig-zag pattern and I remember them being a much deeper groove..............
When did they change and are they better / worse or the same in performance and durability ???
Thanks in advance

Thanks Darkside, it looks like I have the Performance version ( oh dear !).....
How do they compare performance wise ? I realise they arent legal in the U.S , but for club racing here , it wont matter. Once they wear out , I will buy the correct items , I might add.

Several locals ran them during the HPI tire shortage that happened. They were comparable traction on carpet (some think slightly better) but suffered in durability. I do not think you will have any major issues or be running circles around the field because of them.

If we can make a buck. McCallister will pull them. By that I mean if we can make a mold from the Nikko then they will pull the shells for us.
Then all we need is some good photos of the lights and trim and I think I could photoshop a decal sheet together. I bet Seils could print them for us.
