They will definitely do that, but the wife can keep it under control.

Dirt oval foams will mount up to a DS in a fllash, and pinks and purples were mentioned as tire choices there, they start at around 2.95", but can be trued down to 2.1 for carpet- such as http://www.rc4less.com as for the 2 bolt :? new foam, old rims :wink: or new hubs :|

Convert the thing to run with 12mm hexes and run touring car tires. Be the best option IMO.

Ditto. Gotta dig the DS out and knock the dust off of her.

Got a new body for it in the mail yesterday. As usual, paint will be the last thing I complete. :roll:

I think I'm going to run DS tires and wheels on my gearbox car, what's everyone else running?

Foams or rubber touring car tires? I was suprised how sticky the DS tires were after a little paragon, plus they're already worn down to almost slicks so they hook up pretty well.

Small update...

The track has undergone a layout change. We have been running on it for about 2 weeks now. Nothing really technically difficult, but still a nice change.

T-shirts are ordered as well as trophies. Come and get some!

Hope to see some of you guys here.
