Ive got a funny feeling
 
Who else thinks it's strange that proline hasnt stepped up with a new tire .when all the other manufactures have been releasing new tires here befor nats.
I get the feeling they are goin to show up at nationals with a new tire that is so "revolutionary" the competition is goin to crumble.Who else posted or read the thread that digler started yesterday,then misteriously deleted after he got his imput,or maybe a mod deleted it.Seems suspitious to me......whatcha think.

nice dis. did you read the thread that digler posted the other day asking all kinds of ?'s about price tolerance for a new crawler tire?

rockmike 08-22-2007 09:46 AM

Maybe im way out there,like i said just got a feeling something like this could be goin on.It was on my mind so i thought lets have a chat about the possibilities of this happening,was wondering if anybody else got the same impression after reading that thread.This is why its in chit chat.

I didn't see any thread DD started about super tires. I don't know what your talking about, stop trying to start conspiricies.

proline wouldnt hide a new product, the key to sales is creating hype.

Yea I saw the thread you speak of yesterday. I think he may have been getting opinions on something he may want to do himself. I don't know Dirk personally so I don't know if he is affiliated with ProLine or not, but it seemed like he was "feelin" for his own personal product.

Thorsteenster 08-22-2007 10:07 AM

rockmike 08-22-2007 10:15 AM

do not know dirk dont know what he does,just know hes sponsered by proline.

Usmc8541 08-22-2007 10:24 AM

Who knows with him. Hes like Skunk Works with his stuff. I told him I'd pay $35 to $50 a set and then he deleted it. Maybe he was doing a feeler for proline, maybe he was'nt. Honestly, its none of my business until they or him says so.

So evrybody works on there junk for months buys all the lastest high dollar crap,thinkin they have the **** and are goin to be real competetive.And a couple of guys got this brand new bigger better tire and kick the shat out of everyone and take the "w"that would create enough hype dont ya think.theres plenty of time to sell tires,the biggest key is to prove there better than the rest

Thorsteenster 08-22-2007 10:49 AM

What ever it was, I hope they are taller and coming soon.

Me too bud.Been hopin for a bigger better tire for a while now.

You guys need to visit Prolines website, they're showing that they will be offering the M2k and Moabs in their M3 compound, just like was asked of them in the Wheel and Tire forum.

todd1803 08-23-2007 11:31 AM

Offering existing tires in a softer compound is just them doing everything they can to retain market share against the new Losi tires. The costly part of tire development is creating the molds, and developing the rubber formula. The molds already existed, and so did the M3 compound. Really didn't cost them anything.

Reality is, they have never had a reason to feel their market share threatened until now. No other "serious" tire company has ever made a crawler tire before. I say "serious" becasue Axial (at least in the first release) and Imex have proven that making a tire that looks good is worthless without the right rubber. Losi has long been one of only two serious competitors for ProLine in the tire market. When they stepped into crawlers, ProLine took notice.

The "truth" is out there......
