Those are the premounted USGT tires from GravityRC (Paul Lemieux's company)

I like those wheels. I didn't know that he was offering a 3rd option on wheels for the premounts now. Those wheels look like the Exotek or Speedline wheels.

It will handle much different if you cut the wing to USGT spec of 10mm. The lower mold line on the wing.

When I cut my wing down to the lower cut line, it was still taller than 10mm. I didn't measure, but it was more like 15mm. I set my caliper to 10mm and trimed it down to that and it's lower than the mold line.

No, I am running the new McCallister Mustang. There have been several Caddys running at our track and they perform well. Several racers had to adjust their cars to get high speed rear grip after cutting the wing down from its max height. It was just had a different balance. I am going to pay close attention to the new PF Camaro.
This class is great - all the different body choices. The Gate's "Summer Slam" had the fastest 13 cars qualify within one lap.

I do like that McCallister body. Does well?? I was running HPI Porsche 911 Turbo body... it had a real good feel to it as well. Thanks for the tip though.
