Electron front and positron rear is a very popular combo. In my experience the electron F have the most side and forward grip. The electron R have a square profile which is great for straighter lines but corners inconsistent. The positron R has a rounded profile which is much more balanced side and forward bite. I personally liked the tread of the electron rear but the tire profile just doesn't work as well for some of us, they did make an electron lite that had a round profile and drove amazing but seems they discontinued it.

On our clay track my favorite tires are some ghost pin positron S3's, for some reason the MC compound makes the buggy feel more ontop of the track and slide more. The track temp and air temps aren't even high either, which everyone seems to rant about them only working for high temps, so sometimes things are worth testing for yourself.
what is your home track?
