Alot of tire questions...
#1
Should i invest in a set of boa c's now, or wait until next indoor season? I'll only get to go to the track one or two more times until it goes outdoor.

On another note, what'll be the choice outdoor MT tire/foam in your opinion?

Also, is it worth cutting the RE foams to fit inside the boas or should I stick with the stock foams?

Opinion on new skinny bowties? What foams?

Thanks in advance.:joy:

I had no luck with the stock boa foams. Mine didnt even last a day of practice before they were completly shot. Im putting racers edge foams in my next set. Im gonna run the boa c's and new bow ties outside.

Boa foams are good. Panther unfortunatly had a bad batch that were distributed. The new batch is good and shouldnt have any problems with them. alot of people have had good results using "C" Boas outdoors. Maybe try a set of soft ot M/S Boa's.

bow ties indoors were ok. They had a little to much slide in them compared to the boa's. I drove a little bit on leisures outdoor track and those tires were just hooked up.

Alrighty then! I already have a worn down set of old bowties, a 1 run set of 40 bowties, and now I'll pick up a set of the small bowties.

What foams for the new bowtie mt? RE?

I'm thinking tires. I'm not confident enough yet to drill my tires yet though.

How much are they?

Free! I use a small diameter brass rod. I filed the edge until it had a sharp bevel edge. Back the tire with a soft piece of wood and a sharp tap with the hammer drives it right through the tire and tape (if you used tape).
got paint?

Has anybody noticed the holes in the tires ripping or tearing etc? How do you patch up the hole in the rim if it comes predrilled?
