    O.k.
    What are the best tires to race on an asphalt oval on one of these rigs?

    i have seen anacondas on rustlers, but they are wide for a slash body, they stock tires are not that bad on hot top

    We did some testing this evening with a couple Slash trucks and we ran the stock tires and the performance was stable and very predictable.
    We must have run a couple hundred laps with no problems at all.
    This is going to be a fun class for everyone if we keep it stock.

    What tires to run on the Slash seems to be a hot topic.
    I have what I think is the best answer to the question.
    Run any tire that will fit on your vehicle so long as you bring enough with you so every one gets a set! Otherwise lets just keep them stock.
    Will this solve the problem?

    Were making slicks for the slash and blitz. Getting the mold tomorrow and we'll see
    how they come out.

    Our prototypes will be tested at Old Cedar Speedway.

    Headed up to OCS tomorrow morning to test the prototype slick tires. Did some testing already and tires are holding up nice.

    Think the compound might be a little to hard for my taste, but will post results later.
