SC10GT-E
Off road weekend, not sure if I want to race off road, thinking about possible rain!!
Tires from last month wasn't working during practice, track was to wet from the morning fog. Put Turbo Trac's on front and rear (think there "soft" compound). Worked well during the first qual, BUT not 100%!!!!!
Go for broke! JC Bar Codes (Gold) front and rear. NEVER had this tire setup ever on a RC! HOOKED UP!!! Could power into, thru and out of a turn like never before.
Qual'd 5th, finished 5th, thought I was higher up the group, then found out I had passed the same SC three times!!!!!! Well, it was upside down once!! :-)

Side note!
The effort to race one class in off road, is like 3 classes in on road. Pick the right tire tread, the right rubber compound, the right radio setting and the CLAY dust on everything!!!!
On road >>
VTA charge the battery then race.
Mod TC 32 or 36 tires charge battery then race.
Jato/Autocross charge battery then race.
