    I recently got a B4.1 and I'm going to be racing it at Evolution raceway in Casco, and I was looking for some guidance on what shock wt oil to use. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Any info on tire choice would be good to.
    Thanks

    I cant help you with the shock oil question because i dont run 1/10 buggy but for tires i personally like pro line hole shots best. Ive used the new blockades and they work well too. Snipers also work well. Smaller pin tires with a tight tread pattern hook up well.
    My opinion, others may like different tires.
    Hope that might help a little.
