From days of yore and times gone by, the Quickview applied to another thing you can't get anymore. Today, the Cougar 2.2" tire from Panther, and I enjoy the repetitiveness of it.

So tires and foam peaked in 07 and we missed it 😢

Perhaps the Canyoneros can revive Panther. Let's pester them until they make Cougars again!

@JohnCammarota 3 месяца назад

Just did that....

That was some of the best crawling I've ever seen 💫.

I have a set of Panthers . On my old 10.2 With a Scout body. One of my favorite trucks.

I loved these vintage tire review videos so much, keep them up! I remember all these tires and I’m loving seeing how they stack up to modern offerings!

@JohnCammarota 10 дней назад

I just watched this vid again. It has been awhile but i would highly recommend it to all canyonaros to watch. This Tire / insert and "rig" combo gives a performance i would have to say is second to none. It drives and performs so smooth and effortlessly. If i were to judge visually. it could possibly outperform any rig in the canyon based on this rig tire insert combo.

I was sponsored by Panther Tires in 2008. Those tires in the Team White(?) dot where dominant! At one time, I had boxes of different Panther tires. We were encouraged to experiment. We would take many different Truggy tires and try to create tires for our Super class rigs! Very cool! 😎

@lastcreations8845 4 месяца назад

you find a box let me know, you have a buyer. I remember all the plowboys cut and shuts for supers LOL

@mfnJOSH 4 месяца назад

Biggest weakness of the memory foam insert it temp. Under 50° they suffer from rigor mortis. I used to buy twin sized memory foam matress pads and make die cutters from sharpened steel pipe. That allowed me to experiment with dual stage, wider, skinnier, taller, and shroter. It was so much fun exploring that material and DIRT CHEAP to purchase.

@gatorage850 4 месяца назад

panther makes good off-road race tires - if you can find them. If i could only pick one tire for all track conditions (blue groove to dusty or muddy) I'm picking panther boa! they might not be the best/fastest tire for the track but they usually won't fail you. i bet they would even be good at crawling...

@lastcreations8845 4 месяца назад

Hooray ! I found them NEW to send them in, i have near 10 sets used. My favorite compound, and tire EVEN OVER Voodoo og pins, etc... They did start remaking them for a bit, but trying to find out what is going on with PANTHER at all currently they have been MIA since OCT 2023. THEY make a SUPER SOFT compound but never seen them in the cougar. YES THESE were one of the first tires banned :) THEY get crazy sticky if you HEAT them up :) YES real compound, and real memory foam in 2007

@brianmorrison2846 4 месяца назад

I'd buy a set😃

@Camocrawler2868 4 месяца назад

I remember racing 1/8 buggy back in early 2000's and I use those panthers, aka and proline. I had a hot bodys D8. Awesome buggy for the price.

@me-rn7jx 4 месяца назад

that is amazing!! i kind of want to try out a newer tire with that foam and see what happens lol idk where to find that maybe just out of a mattress?😂😂 i sure love old tires ive been watching alot of rcsparks old videos and even some of the tires he ran just looked so much cooler than the ones made now. im sure most of them sucked for crawling haha

@LumpkinMumfins1 4 месяца назад

I’m digging the Rearviews. They’re not tires I’ll ever want, but they’re ones I’ll come across and know something about, which is cool!

@JohnCammarota 3 месяца назад

I suggest all canyoners to send an email to panther tires to request they do a rerun of this tire. I just did exactly that..

@neildaniels5443 4 месяца назад

Dat foam WOW

The lack of a Wheelin Wednesday this week has me sad.

Well, get over here and help me pour concrete and put up siding. Then I'll get done faster. I have to film a whole week's content in between mixing bags of concrete and shoveling gravel.

@tomlucasrccrawlers9108 4 месяца назад

Hey Buddy...just some 411, the first Pro-Line crawlers tires were in the M3 compound.

@CrawlerCanyon 4 месяца назад

What did ProLine do that was crawler-specific in M3? Tires like the Masher 2K count, as those were MT tires. M3 was and still is (in ProLine's words) "indoor/outdoor soft." There were a lot of MT and "truggy" tires that got "re-branded" for the nascent crawler market, but I don't know if ProLine did many (or any) dedicated crawler tires in M3. Even the Hammer from 2009 was G8.

@willbgrill 4 месяца назад

That was cool!! Why can't all single stage foams be that good good real deal memory foam? Somebody get this man some JConcepts Scorpios

@gibsonlife573 3 месяца назад

I know it's a lot to ask but every now and then could you zoom in the show those certain moments to kind of help people understand what the tire is exactly doing when it deflects

I don't use an open cell /3d print hybrid, but I have taken to using a stiff open cell foam/hair donut hybrid. Works very well and my own ultra cheap version of the canyon double bun

Yeah they need to start making tires again you just come out of the dirt went over to Slick Rock and drove right up it

@jimbocreationsbu8203 4 месяца назад

these look a bit like the Proline hammers 2.2 - i should have a set somewhere - and when i find them - you know they will be on the way to the Kingdom of the Canyon - to do the stuff

@CrawlerCanyon 4 месяца назад

OH god, like the backwards bike! There's the two options, and I don't know which would be worse: left is right and right is left + brake is forward and forward is brake, or the alternative, trigger is steering and wheel is throttle. They both sound nightmarish.

@TheAmericanUhate 4 месяца назад

I've also got some imex tires, but they're far too big of a size for any current crawlers. Even too big for my scx6 lol

@HVT03 4 месяца назад

I could say a lot of things on how I feel about those Cougars, I will just say WOW I wont even mention their position on the list (Im going to put these RearViews on the QuickView list) If I can find them, and they are close enough to the 2.2 Rupture size, I will buy these over the Ruptures

@lastcreations8845 4 месяца назад

Cougars are shorter then the near 6" rupture, that was really the only thing that didnt make them Super popular, as we only have straight axles so taller tires ( rovers) were used more. Panther made a leopard it was tall 5.5 i think it was but i did not enjoy them as much. I stretched a cougar set to make a set of tall skinny cougars LOL.

@HVT03 4 месяца назад

@@lastcreations8845 A cutNshut Cougar? That has to perform even better if there was the same memory foam for that size

@stunod-RC 4 месяца назад

This can only ask a question that you failed to mention but maybe also flys in your mind.. how about these foams in a different carcass? Presumably in a similar size.

@CrawlerCanyon 4 месяца назад

Maybe? I can't think of a tire offhand that they would fit, though-- except maybe HB Rovers, which also happen to have very good foams.

@JohnCammarota 3 месяца назад

Where does ratchet sit on the list of most capable crawlers of the canyon?

@CrawlerCanyon 3 месяца назад

Well, he's rocking bonafide cheat codes now, so... pretty far up there. He was basically built as a proof of concept-- so no angle on the skid, no skid forward, an anvil of a gearbox, and none of the fancy stuff. Still does remarkably well.
