New XRAY 808
What tires do you guys recommend on the 808 for muddy conditions? I'm using soft I-Beams for our dusty, loamy track and the work well with the basic setup but need something for mud as well.
Well in mud you might think to use a big pin tire but that is just not the case I would run a small pin tire like a Holeshot because the mud wont stick it will fly off. And on a dusty track I would try Proline Snipers. I haven't seen anyone run I-Beams in a long time because of all the new tires out but I still run them in the rear every once in a while. This is just my opinion I am shure everyone has there own.
2011 Xray 808
I raced my 2011 for the first time this weekend. It was just a little club race and I got there late because of my sisters softball game and missed the 1st qualifier. In the second qualifier I just threw the car on the track not knowing what was going to happen. I got on the track which I didnt even practice on and to add to that, we were running the track backwards lol I had the wrong tires on it, and the track was very loose. So I didnt get a very good qualifier in. I was able to practice with some different tires on my car when they were setting up the mains, for about 25 minutes, and the car was AWESOME!!!! I was ready to go for the A main and as my dad first put it on the track I knew something was wrong, we brought it in and shut it off and noticed that when I spun the tires the front diff would freeze for a second then go on. I didnt want to put it on the track so I sat out the main. I took it apart today and nothing seemed to be wrong, very weird . But overall the car was awesome and hofily I wont have problems next time and put this beast on the top of the podium!!!! Cant wait till next time!!!!

Almost finished I work on it a after work and the first time on the track will be Q1 at Silver State Nitro Challenge next Friday I am going to try the Picco 3 port because I know the track in Boulder City will be tech and blown out, if I dont like it I will go with the +4. PS the one color wonder is just until I get a wrap from Chad!!
Nice!

Marcus. How long was the build.
So far 4 hours, I need to finish the center diff, shocks, and radio stuff. The Xray is of superior quality to anything I have had and you know I have had them all. And comming from my last CAR you know the parts are alot better just by building it.
For really muddy tracks after a good rain shower. Like Marcus said small pin tires. The smaller the better, after a lap no matter what tires your running they will be cover with mud. So you'll have a mud tire. :P So the less mud the pins hold the better. AKA wishbones have the smallest pins. Those might work even better.
They even put in a disclaimer on page 3 of the manual: "XRAY MODEL RACING CARS assumes no responsibility for any injury...*snip*... NOR ANY ADDICTIONS that may arise from the use of this product."
Enjoy your new ride!
