Hey Guys,
Tire foam question...
Do you all trim the foam to match the profile of the tire you are running?
Also do you trim a channel in them near the rim to keep them out of the bead?
Or should I just stuff them in there, glue them, wear them out, and move on to a new set as needed?

Well, I was challenged tonight by John Benedict with his Vintage Losi ! John called me out when I wasnt even gonna run. He guaranteed he was faster and here is the result. This is my XX vs. his XX
lol These clips are the slower times, we ran almost a full second faster in a later clip but I couldnt convert it all.
See you guys For the races Saturday!
