I did try out my gps on the car and was able to achieve 44 mph with 4S 30C.

I look forward to learning from the forum.

Welcome to the club. I'm on my second set of tires. I'll be following others and moving to 1/5 GRP tires once this set is finished. I'm waiting for the wheel adaptors to comeback in stock.
Hopefully Losi is aware that many of us are moving to 1/5 tires. Maybe come spring they will have a better wearing tire. Or one of the aftermarket companies will create something.
