As for diff and thrust balls, ordered some ceramic ones this morning.

As tires go, the only tire I've ever gotten to work there is proline calibers. I boght alot more tires to try out though so we will see what happens. Not really a JC fan but I've heard that goosebumps work on a track like mine.

Thanks for your help.
I have RPM Ball Cups on all my cars but as robust as they are they contributed a great deal to the slop in my steering. When I had my 22 I noticed that there was less play everywhere on the car (aside from the terrible slide-rack steering system) and still having over 50 studs and cups, I decided to give it w whirl and instantly my steering tightened up substantially. I'd say it removed upwards of 65% of it and the little slop I have left is due to the rack itself which I'm going to modify for precision movement and swap out the studs and ball cups.
