RD Logics tires ?

Does anyone have any experince with their premounts? I know the stock tires for the SHO are kinda crappy for racing, but their studs look kinda nice, and they're cheap!

RE: Buggy to Truggy

You're confusing me... do you want me to get a Savage??? I already have one :). I am only looking to put $100 or so into a SHO ( besides radio) to make it a truggy, for now.

ROFLMAO! You 2 crack me up! OK, back to the topic, Would I get away with just using a set of 28mm offset wheels or should I use the extensions and less of an offset wheel? Also, if I use the...

RE: Komodo Dragon 2's or Crimefighters???

Our track is hard packed with some loose dirt. We try to water the track down before racing starts and a few more times between races.
