Biggest Limitation?

Seriously though, traction.

I do not know about that. My wimpy clod gave me my best run yet. My hybrid E/T Maxx has worked good some times amd other times not so good.

But I would have to agree with Mr. Digler that traction is the biggest problem and if that was solved then the stering servo would be next in line.

The size seems to be good. The sidewall looks to be about right. Mounted on a narrow wheel, the lugs will be pulled down onto the sidewall for traction, etc. I'm excited to see this tire and test it.

I can't wait to get a set and Cut-N-Shut those bitches.

I bought a set of jumbo swamps and was literaly depressed when I got them. they werent but like 1/16" bigger than my stock TXT tires and they were wider :( the new Clod swampers should be alot better though if they are how big they say they are. - they are due out the end of Nov.

All depends on your opinion I guess. In the Colorado/Utah comps a short wide tire is nice cuz it keeps yer CG low and aids in stability. Kaetwo and Pinchy both have a set of narrowed and full width Giant Tracs. I have seen them switch back and forth depending on the courses.

Giant Tracs seem to be the benchmark of tire performance IMHO, I hope IMEX did the new Clod Swamp Dawg right.

In my case it's the driver. I am to damn throttle happy!

i think the only problem with the traction on rc's is because of the weight...
maybe if they were about scale weight the traction wouldnt be an isue? i dunno, because my maxx is like 25lbs and i dont have a problem with traction ever. but then i have my jugg/mad force/pede thing that weighs 8lbs and loses traction quite a bit during a run..
