What in the name of bad quality is going on here? Eight sets at the hobby shop tonight and all of the fronts have this.
I contacted Scott Jakes and he said this is normal, from the injection mold, and has been in every tire for two years. So clearly I am being too fussy about wanting better quality for my $35. I don’t remember these divots being that pronounced in any previous sets I have purchased. The set I returned to the hobby shop were much deeper than this set. Thoughts?

Then this is the wrong thread. This here is the foam tire thread. Note the missing "RT" for Rubber Tire in the thread title.

What is the current best GT12 asphalt/tarmac body? Lots of downforce and steering I would imagine to be the ideal parameters. If not please educate me, I am a former racer returning after years wondering lost in the woods of other pursuits.

What spur gears are best ? I picked up a used p12 that has a 48p spur on it , 56 tooth , but I’m not finding very many spurs in 48p for pan cars , I’ve looked everywhere, I can’t even find the one on the car . So I ordered a couple from excelerate rc , but they are 66t .
Thnx.
Thnx.
