Hi @onemans videos, You can pick up the Body Mounts right now at horizonhobby.com 👍 www.horizonhobby.com/product/extended-front-and-rear-body-mnt/PRO637000.html As for the Shockwaves, possibly in the future! Thanks for your interest and support!
In full scale drag racing tire growth is used for final gearing gains and reduced drag on the big end. Hmmmmm. But in RC stability wins over those factors?
I think your logic makes sense. Stability I think would be a main concern, as a 1/10 scale funny car going 100 mph, (1000 mph scale speed) things could go south in a split second. On a full size funny car, they would hit 330 mph. On a real car, there’s a myriad of high quality suspension components which can be tuned, whereas I don’t think that could really be possible (or a market for) for plastic RC car parts.
I know this was a while ago, but yeah... r/c cars are not 1:1 cars and behave quite differently. Also, a lot of these r/c cars run diffs, so if one tire loses traction it gets spinning FAST, really really quick, and like said above, things happen REAL quick with these cars! Plus, you're not sitting inside of the r/c car, so you can't "feel" what's going on with it, like when in a real car. Another big difference is, they're running their "scale" quarter mile in 2.0 secs or better nowadays.. So you have a car that weighs a few pounds (literally) that's accelerating 0-100mph in 2 secs, with tire diameters of just over 4". A 4 inch tire at 100mph is spinning quite a bit many more rpms versus a 36 inch tire is at 300, also. I guess all in all, they're just 2 VERY different animals!
we need a wrinkel wall slick for our drag car
Awesome. Now belted tires for the 4x4 Slash with a little more power than normal.
Let’s go
Great tire
Will these wheels and wide Reaction tires clear everything on a 2wd Slash chassis using the shorter Bandit arms?
Thats pretty cool, but can you all make an oval tire thats belted to?
they do if ur still looking lol
Dudes! You make tires and you make wheels. Give us an equal sidewall drag setup.
When you releasing the maxx 4s body mounts and bring back the shockwaves 3.8

How wide are the showtime plus wheels? It looks like they’re about 6-8mm wider but what is the measurement?
Hi @Andrew N.,
The wheels are 1.90" (48mm) 👍
can you do a belted tire review for off road tires?
would these tires fit the beadlock wheels?
These would be a lot better if they were a wide offset. Your Showtime plus wheels are narrower offset than any other wheel on the market.
