YR4dude.. The tires are simple inserts are still foam. There are three different compounds which gives you a little flexibility and actually saves you money. If you bring the wrong compound you might just eat up the tires in one day.
EXACTLY!

do you realize.. the "original" idea with RCGT was SPEC CYCLONE TUB chassis only and saturn closed end bell motors? That class was run at the Hot Bodies Underground Series. The RCGT Showdown "loosened up" the rules for easier entrance to the class (hence the BL 17.5 any x-pattern tire instead of the gumball tires).

i bet you didnt know that?
