These crawlers are really go anywhere rigs because of their size. When I said I bring mine with me just about everywhere I go, I really do. I was up at the Delta this last weekend and brought my modified one with me on my boat. I swapped out the stock tires for some RC4WD mud slingers, while I love the look of these tires I forgot just how bad they perform even compared to the stock MRC tires. I can't wait for the blue compound claws to come out. Here are some pics I took this last weekend. If you think the mud slingers don't have traction, try adding water and sand. No animals were hurt during this photo shoot.          |

Hey Badger , I like the look of your MRC , I bought one too and did several mods. Moved the stock battery to the servo , moved the esc , put the spacers on the left rear shock to , just about eliminate , the torque twist. Aluminum 1.9 beadlocks with RC4WD Prowler XS scale tires/ no foams , 2 oz in ea front and 1 oz in ea rear. Its has plenty of power , but it dosent crawl for SHAT. Seems to be lacking traction , is it the tires? How does yours compare to your 2.2 rigs , mabey I'm expecting too much from this little rig. Thanks Dwane |

Now with your rig, I've never used or seen those Prowler tires but if they are anything like the mud slingers or rock crushers compound they would have shitty traction. I do know that tread design on the Prowlers provide so side hilling traction. If you want more traction try some Trail Docter's or wait for the new claws from Losi. I actually started to like the lack of traction the mud slingers had last night, it made all the obstacles more challenging. | |
