TBJ , I dyed the wheels using RIT Royal Blue liquid dye .
If you do it , be careful the dye takes pretty quicky and the wheels get dark pretty fast .
I have also done the Proline wheels ....

ThunderbirdJunkie knows how to dye, he was just hoping you used the proper process that would last rather than wasting your time with paint[&:]
What kind of surfaces are you running your Bowfighters on?
ThunderbirdJunkie feels his Enduros work well at his local track, but looking at the Bowfighters they seem like they'd do significantly better, as evidenced by his superior lap times on a set of hacked up PL Bow Tie T's.

So far I have only ran them for one raceday on a really loose loamy surface and they did very well . On my backyard track that is hardpack dirt with a loose dusty surface they were decent , IDK if they are better than the Enduros yet as I havent had that much time with them .

got several race days on the track with the Enduros, and with hacked Bow Tie T's ThunderbirdJunkie can actually go WOT down the main straight.
Where do you race? Leisure Hours or that one on the north side?

RE: Freshly painted Raptor SCT R body ....
I race at Leisure when I can get down there but its kind of a haul for me , I run on the local outdoor tracks around me and am hoping to get too Trackside a few times this winter .
There is also a Hobby Town getting ready too open up an indoor track less than 20 minutes from me so I will be there alot this winter .
