So in the hnt for traction and changing setups etc... I remembered being told one that the tires are the first thing to look at.

I made some of the setup changes you guys suggested and the car was a lot better. Still felt a little loose in the rear and very twtichy/responsive up front.

For example, I couldn't keep the speed up really high through the big sweeping turns without breaking loose then turn way too sharp turning into the inner wall after making the turn.

So...tiresm what is everyone using now-a-days? I have heard that Jaco Blues work awesome but that they don't make them anymore only to have someone else say they are still making them, just out of stock. My local track is specing jaco blues or sweep 28s. The jaco is a 32 right? Wouldn't the 28 give me more traction?

My current tires don't hook up until about 2 minutes into the race when they get heated up. I am using paragon FX II but have been thinking of switching to sticky fingers or jack the gripper.
