With the slower rotating mass of VTA, I wonder if this would work....I use Goop for just about everything else.....hmmmm

If it did work, you could pull the tires off the rim, and then peel the goop cleanly off the rims....
Thats not a bad idea to try out Ray...There's not enough go power for the tires to generate a small ballon effect, the goop "should" be able to hold them enough when scrubbing around the corners. When I'm practicing with my V-Ta, I sometimes run without any adhisive product on the tires/rims...Only had a tire barely come of once during practice... Goop just might be a good use adhisive for V-Ta race trim. My next set of rims & tires, Ill try it out. Hobby shop's having a hard time keeping V-TA rims and tires in these days
