It was 5.5lbs RTR before the G6. Easily 1-2 lbs of mud on it. Mike with Pitbull got several videos of them killing it on course.

Yep. Eddie stuffed a huge box full of 1.55 Growlers in the back of the car coming back from the Rock Beast Blues Recon G6. Mike Green with Pitbull Tires is awesome! We free'd up some room for em. It was awesome to see that many Growlers in that box.

The Crawler Innovations 1.55 foams for these tires should be available in the first part of August. I ran the prototypes this weekend with great results.
My rig was 5.5lbs and I ran soft outers up front and medium outers out back.

finally got to changing the foams out. stock foams are way too soft for my liking. i had a set of lil nova 2 stage foams and i decided to cut them down to fit the 1.55. had to cut about an inch out of the inner grey and outer white foams. youll notice in the pic i have removed alot of the inner portion of the foams to accomodate my lead rope weight. i do this in all my tires. even my new pitbull closed cell foams. the new foams feel alot better than the stock foams. tomorrow ill get to try them out. i could not wait for the 1.55 ones that eddie at CI has in the works. once they are available ill order a proper set.
