Knowing that SVEN was using them at a comp only confirms the reason to re-test & tune with them. Thanks for the info. |

Our weather is humid with some occasional rain and the rock traction has turned terrible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- Sweet! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Voodoos! |
Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- Nice Eddie! Personally, I would lower your truck some after switching from the Panthers..."thumbsup" |

Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- S'up Eddie? 8) Looking forward to your full results and opinions on the Voodoo/foam combinations. That way I'll know exactly what to order here in the very near future. I hope you gots big shipping boxes:twisted: |
Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- I take back my earlier statement....it looks like your truck is working pretty damn well with that setup! "thumbsup" |
Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- Yeah that "monster truck" setup probably helps a lot on his rock course with all of the breakovers and such. Glad to see some activity in your comp threads recently Eddie 8) |
Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- Curious to see what foams you like the most. Love the choice of old school hip hop by the way. "thumbsup" |

Re: --- The Crawler Innovations XR-10 Build -- That is too bad. Why put the vent holes in the sidewall in the first place? I was thinking about why some drivers were doing that. I would think placing the vent holes in the center of the tread would be a much better option for this type of tire. |
That sucks.. Doesn't look like it started at a vent hole, but its a little too vented now! |

1/4" too wide Gold Compound = Slowed Crawled sandstone and iron ore like I have NEVER experienced or seen before. I am truly impressed with tire design and compound over all. Quote:

So far: Front: 6.0 Double Deuce Wide Inner - Soft Outer / No Tuning Ring The inner has been modified to allow for more forward bite by channeling. Please visit Szczerba's build for a rough idea of what I am talking about and how you can mod your own: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/enrou...s-berg-18.html I am working on new tooling for some new competition only style inner foams. Rear: 6.0 Double Deuce Wide Inner - Medium Outer narrowed to 2" width / No tuning ring The inner has been modified to allow the outer to conform better by channeling the inner. The video was the trucks second battery pack. The tires arrived Saturday afternoon, I had them mounted and on the rocks within two hours and was filming. The foams were New, not broken in. The tires were used by Kratos already and I installed them in the same pattern, direction, and orientation on my crawler. The front lugs were roughly 45% gone before I received them and had a nice beveled edge on the lugs. Quote:
