Actually he was using custom tires he made himself. He glues 2 or 3 different tires together to get the sidewall he likes with inside tread he likes and outside tread he likes. They are pretty cool, are usually a little wider than what the normal width is, but bery pricy cutting up 3 pairs of tires to make one good pair.

That would make a set of short course tires about 130 bucks 
Who else wants a tire sponsor!

I use RPM ball cups. They tend to be pretty tight and help a little. 1/10th scale is know for it's Chicom sloppiness, it's normal.

well that seems to be an AE problem. On the other trucks and buggies they to will get sloppy. You can try shimming them out with the CVD rear shims. Just make sure when you reassemble the steering rack that it doesnt bind up the rack.

I used an aluminum steering rack with no servo saver in mine for a while. With the big tires and skid plate/bumpers I never had an issue with hitting anything and messing up the servo. It worked great and had tons more steering too.

He Guys
I just bought a SC10 RTR brushless. I took it to a small track today and it handled pretty good; turned good, jumped pretty good and accelerated pretty
quickly. The only problem was getting on the gas hard out of turns. The rear-end seemed the want to break-loose; easing on the gas kinda fixed it. I might replace the grease with 7,000 wt diff fluid. One more thing. I weighed the RTR brushless Pro-Comp body and it weighed a whopping 245grams my nitro 1/8 buggy's body only weighs 55grams. Does anyone know who makes a lighter body?
