I don't know why you guys are so worried about having an edge with modified tires and scaleless rigs for just second and third place trophies, cause I will be taking home the 1st place trophies in both the scale classes regardless of what rules are in place.  |

i think giving bonus points for running stock tires was a smart way to go about this... I do think in the future we should look into a tire height class and not a wheel size class though like lets say 4.25 and under is a class to replace 1.9 and 4.26 and over replaces the 2.2 even though current rules really don't restrict you from running a huge 1.9 in the 2.2 class (but they do hurt you because of not running oem tires) |

I think running the RC4WD rubber is cool, but if someone is running cut & shut prolines, let em run. As far as the RC4WD rubber getting a handicap that is BS in my opinion.

I voted or stock/uncut BUT... What about siping? That is something many people do to 1:1 street driven tires. |

You could run cut and modified tires, but if you want the bonus points it say the tires have to remain unmodified. Unmodified means right out of the package, no cutting, no siping, no sanding down, ect.

A tire that will bridge the gap between performance and scale realism will be on the market within 90 days. They should work very well for the scalers and the 2.2 class. I'm sure Proline has something up their sleeves as well. Feel free to chime in Griz.

I would have allowed both if I could. Modified or cut tires should be allowed as long as they resemble a 1:1 tire you would actually see on the trails. Or what about hand out tires? They do it with stock motors at races.
