Great stuff Fred, I'm looking forward to seeing you and these tires "do work" this weekend.

Thanks Griz.

Thanks. It's actually Faith No More, the song is Stripsearch off the Album of the Year disc.

...Thats Korean...not Japanese...My hangul is pretty bad but it looks like they are saying that the video is BY Bender so props to him...The Korean crawler community is SO much more advanced than ours...

...Bender isnt a household name here yet but he cant be far off ;) Maybe one of the Japanese makers will send him an invite to the Japanese Nats.

...FWIW Losi is a bit of a 'non' brand here...So is Traxxas but that said the E-Revo DID cause a stir in the local print media...

...For better or for worse Axial is 'the' brand of the moment and there are more Rock Lizards on LHS shelves than anything else...The Tamiya tires for sure (CR-01) and probabaly the new extended HPI crawler tires when they show but the Japanese RC market is reasonably xenophobic when it comes to 'American' brands...Now of course if Bender was an HPI driver he would probably get a magazine cover ;)

Apologies for going slightly off topic but call it 'education'

Maybe 2-3 ounces tops per wheel. I'm not exactly sure, I just wrapped the front wheels in some lead my buddy had, there's no weight measurement on them.

"Bender son". Hmmm.... I think it has a good ring to it.

They look like the 1:1 BullDog tire which is becoming more and more "big time" tire and seeing them more and more in 1:1 comps

they look like a good tire, cant wait
