It's hard to find the best of both worlds, great job Eddie.......
This was the same setup I used at The Midwest Challenge last weekend, 5.5's with Sedona's. I love this setup, It just works......... Keep up the good work Eddie.

I had a hard time getting them to work for me when I first got them, they seem to have a break in period before they become magic! Just keep running them, even spending a day treating them like a stress ball would help.

You will/should get an email thru paypal when they reach "shipped" status. Got mine today.

Thats about it when ordering thru the C.I. site I do believe. I know Eddie stays pretty darn busy but gets his stuff out as soon as possible.



My 1st set of 5.5 foams......broke in:

I just drive them to break them in. A few battery packs and they soften up a little. As for the .7's, how much the crawler weighs is more important. If it's under 6 pounds, I would try for 2 inch in front and 1 3/4 in the rear. If it's over 6 pounds try them at 2 1/8.

The 2.2 white or blue dot rovers use the 5.5 tall Double Deuce Nova Foams.

The 2.2 pink rovers are best used with a combo of the 5.5 inner foam and 5.0 outer foam. I am going to add that as an option to the C.I. web site. You end up with a 5.25 tall foam.

The width of the inner foam depends on the weight of your crawler and how wide of wheel you are using.

I personally use a 1 inch wide wheel front and rear. My front inner foam is 2 inch and the rear inner foam is 1 3/4 wide. My Rock Show berg 2.2 comp crawler is 5 pounds 14 ounces.

Keep the questions coming and THANK YOU to everyone for your support of the products and me. I could not do any of this without you and I am extremely grateful.
