I agree wheel speed is king but when the rest of the rig is built strong there always ends up being a weak spot which was my driveshaft on my Wraith which I was running a Mamba Max Pro with a censored 10.5t Brushless on 3s ..... Something had to give! As the video showed..... bind up and tear some sh!t up.....!!!!!

^^^ Thanks but I was actually surprised how well the soft compound irons performed on the wet rocks and in the hill climb but I think wheel speed is needed to get them to clean out fast enough in the dirt. I have some 2.2 super swampers that I want to have reduced to 1.9's I just need to find someone who can do it because I'm not going to f'up a brand new set trying.

10 4 the boggers cut are not to shabby on the rocks. i used a tire compound softer on them after they broke in so there soft now. if u come out this weekend u can test them out. there on weighted wheels.

Yeah the guy who owns the oval track owns everything but the guy who runs the drag strip is retiring so the drag way will be closed at the end of December unless someone comes in and takes over his lease.

Its all going to be shut down... And tore down from what i understood. A developer camo in and bought it so they could build a walmart.. Don't quote me on this but Im fairly certain that's why its being closed.

Pretty smart... Build another damn Walmart and promote street racing since the kids don't have any where legal to drag.... Absolutely brilliant.

That almost happened but Walmart already bought property elsewhere. Either way the drag strip is closing because the guy who runs it is retiring but anyone with money could come in and take over his lease and keep it going but as of now nobody has done so. All the other venues are staying open.
