thanks. but saying that, i will not be running on really wet road just when the grass is boggy i want to run on the road but do not want to wear down my dirt bonz lol. what are the proline road rage II tyres like?
ORIGINAL: murawskiallen
i have a set of speed hawg tires ( http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXDU17&P=ML ) that i have not yet used they look like they will grip ok but the road hawg tires ( http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXDU17&P=ML ) look like they grip a lot better, i only got the speed hawg tires because i found a set of 4 on ebay for a really good deal.... foam tires will grip a lot better if it is dry but you mentioned using onraod tires when its wet out and the foam tires will get all soggy and wont perform well, so for wet on road running i think your best bet is to go with some rubber tires

i think im going to get some on-road tyres for my mt2 for when the weather is bad and when its wet on the floor but not raining so i can run on the road. i just dont like running my car in the soggy mud. it gets everywere [X(]. cant wait for summer to come back

hahaha that would be soooooooooooooooooo funny if they werent really yours and you let your dog out on them but what are the chances of that...how stupid could those kids be they took your cars and played with them near buy and didnt expect to get caught, man you really are lucky if sombody with even an ounce of common sense took them they would have already been long gone having been sold or somthin

RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread
You guys will never believe what just happened!!! Ok, so i get the urge to inhale some nitro fuel and rip up the snow outside my house and over in the park. I get through 4 tanks of fuel while my truck is basically runing the best it has ever run before. Blowing lots of smoke at full thorttle and just reving like you wouldn't believe. So on my 5th tank of fuel i am driving and i notice my engine is revving but my truck is not moving... first thing i assumed is my spur is ground to bits. I get my little truck home to realize... my engine was tuned to damn good that the clutch housing actually twisted OFF the clutch gear connecting to the spur gear... the steel actually twisted off... i am amazed. So anyways, i was wondering if someone could give me a link to a new racing clutch, the good ones.

holy crap. some severe gales today here in the UK brought by some really low pressure. [X(][X(] London - 77mph winds other areas 92mph, destroyed our green house, blew fences down (luckily my shed is still standing). I got hit in the head & back with a fence panel trying to save some tools out of the green house. phone lines are all down, roofs blown off, and a roof at my college today blew off. and "The Lords" cricket ground in London roof blew off [X(]. looks like im spending the weekend helping my dad put up some new fences & a new green house.
