I will say that I haven't driven a slash so maybe I should reserve judgement until I do. I guess that if people really want to run ribs and fuzzies on SCTs there will eventually be a class to do so.
Then you know.
I agree, they handled the rough sections a little better because the tires were more forgiving. Not sure they jumped any better, and they sure plowed through the turns like dumptrucks. But over time they widened them out and it solved the whole weebles-wobble problem we had back then from them being too narrow using buggy arms.
