I must say I am impressed. Just when I thought they would keep slipping they bite.

Is your front tires mounted backwards?
Oh good, I'm glad it wasn't something I did (or didn't do) I'm not very tech savvy .

The tires shouldn't work as well as they do, I'm more and more impressed every time I drive them.

And yes, I mounted the front tires backwards just for fun.

Nope its my stuff acting up. I see what you mean about them packing fast but for the most part that's all the same situations and ingredients I drive my rig through and yours didn't really get stuck due to lack of grip just body snag.

Any advantages to running the tread backwards?

Looks like they work pretty good. I've been patiently waiting for these to become available.

Now I need to go get some.

You know Tim, the only way you will ever get this truck done is if you quit playing with it. If I didn't know any better Id say the tires are on par with the 1.9 rockbeasts by the lines you were driving. Needless to say me and my Bug are nervous....

Just received Samples#2...and I'm not 100% happy with the detailing. Once again, probably not a big issue with most people...but I want them right. Small details that are faint should be more prominent. Should have revised T3 samples in two weeks. If they are a go, then May 15 will be ETA. I know...it sucks. It sucks for us too.

I have been excited about these tires since their inception! It's cool that you guys are supporting the scale market.

Thanks Pit Bull!!

Isn't it great that Pitbull wants the very best quality for their product before they release it?
