@patrickmcdonnell8835 3 года назад

I am basher to been to a track a few times but unfortunately it closed but put gorilla tape in your tire to stop ballooning and clean tires with windex or simple green before glueing Us gorilla glue seems to work better than ca glue minis the bubbling and it’s cheaper

@gs817 6 лет назад

@hawkeyelikesbikes 5 лет назад

I'm not understanding why this is necessary - would you not just run a tackier compound? Or is it to do with firmer rubber maintaining tyre shape and just having a grippier outer layer?

@brown55061 4 года назад

I realize a lot of fast guys do this but why not setup your car with a touch softer springs or use a softer compound tire to start with? Cutting down your tread right out of the box means you just took 2-3 more weeks of racing off that tire. Just treating the tire to make the rubber softer should help a bunch, regardless of that 1mm of extra tread. I guess it also depends on the track surface. For loose dirt I can't imagine taking more tread off helps in 2wd.

@BubbaCamps 5 лет назад

this is the most redic thing ive ever seen! they need a run what you brung style race. tires need to be shipped to the track from amazon. looking like a bunch of tweakers sanding tires. i love rc but this is lame dude. jmo. you do drive like a champ tho!

@eyemastervideo 6 лет назад

This is too much work. I barely clean my tires after a race... lol

@memorexkiller 4 года назад

I tend to just sauce my new tires multiple times in a ziplock bag overnight, till they are slightly more squishy or softer. I let my tires break in naturally on the car itself by running some laps at the track doesnt take long for your tires to form.

@beargillium2369 5 лет назад

Seems like the tires should spin in the opposite direction of the arrows since you're effectively doing a burnout, you're actually scratching it in reverse.. Idk anything about this just my 2 cents. Cool vid!

@beargillium2369 5 лет назад

I guess just trying mounting them in opposite rotation would be the test

@fastlanecarcarellc3608 Год назад

Rookie question. Once you glue your wheels to the tires and you run your tires to the point there no good, do you toss the wheel and tire both or do you just peel the tire off and re use the wheels? I havent seen anyone really talk about this. Normally I just toss the whole thing because getting the glue and rubber off of the sidewall is a total chore.

@LuisClement 3 года назад

Cool Ryan, thanks. Would u need to do this on tires for dirt outdoor low grip, u know ones with lots of pins?

@Duececutty6972 3 года назад

Ryan, thank you for the great videos. I’m still new to off road racing. Does this work on all tires on all track conditions? Just mounted hole shots on my 1/8 buggy. I pay too much to scrub some rubber off.

@smOOdiebOOdie 4 года назад

Wow this is so cool tho! 😄 I didn’t know the pros did all this! Ryan: How much time can a prepped tire gain vs a non-prepped tire on a lap? In car lengths?.. What are your thoughts on the poor-mans tire sause - WD40? 😛

@mikedoubleohdoubleu2135 8 месяцев назад

Definitely not for the general crowd which I’m sure sponsors are not targeting…but maybe, if they want more people into the sport/hobby, change direction/flow/etc. of the video. Consider the broad buying base.

Fair enough, here in Australia I've never seen it done to that extent, sauced yes but less than half of the pro drivers would do that

MC is quite hard compared to m4, I only use m4 or m3 95% or the time

@thecman26 6 лет назад

Steve Toomer MC is a bit stiff but it does soften up a bit. A local Proline rep led me to MC as I needed something harder than M4 and M3 wasn't on hand. So yeah M3 would be a better option!

Hey pal.. I’m just getting into R/C racing & love your videos. Very interesting and knowledgeable.. Keep up the good work. By the way I have no idea how to rebuild a R/C car & it seems very difficult..

@limited50scla 5 лет назад

Manoli Patsaros it's not hard, it might be intimidating at first. So you won't misplace your screws, get a piece of cardboard or foam board. Try to draw/trace the chassis of the car. And put a dot where the screws go, then make on for the top chassis, a arms, shock tower. Etc. So when you take the rc apart, each screw you take out to put it into the board.

@christopherlastname7638 4 года назад

It not hard at all just pay attention and try not to wait to long in between taking it apart and putting it back together just so you don't forget how it goes! Your rc should have a diagram and that will tell you what goes ware ! The best way to learn is get a kit and build it yourself! Just about anyone who is in this hobby will help you that's the best part of rc !

Also known in the NASCAR world as scuffs vs sticker tires. 👍

@powertothesheeple5422 3 года назад

Thankfully Companies like Raw Speed started offering slicks for clay which require little to no prep before you take it to the track. Get those and save yourself a lot of time and hassle.

@alexmoran1692 4 года назад

I use a 3" x5" piece of 220 sand paper, lay the sand paper on a flat surface spray a tad of Simple Green on to the sand paper and then take the tire and hold the sand paper while slowly sanding the whole tire for 3-4 rotations. Then spray a microfiber towel with simple green then massaging the tire

@mikeman5604 5 лет назад

so i see a reply to all the great job comments but the ones asking questions get no response at all? even some deleted? so real question what type of lap time difference does this give you? also with all the different types of rubber compounds avail why has joncepts not made a rubber with the feel you want right of the box? seems like quite a bit of work but am curious to the results?

@lennyjohnson1711 5 лет назад

Ryan your video rock. I purchased new tires and they were terrible without prep. I run on a clay track and could not get any momentum. Thanks for the help I will be doing this now.

@brown55061 5 лет назад

Any ideas how to do this to a more knobby tire like traxxas truck tires? Seems like the scuffing would be harder than with these smooth tires. I just want to clean them and get all the compound off that they pick up from the track.

@SlimTheGoat 3 года назад

Be cool to see more compounds and tire thickness. Having a much thicker tire would give you the ability to actually cut the rubber to desired thickness. Back in my race car days on dirt I had all sorts of tricks like cutting camber into the tires. The rc prep they sell ain't the best sauce you can get, my hint is the worse the chemical the better prep it makes. Application makes a huge difference too...amount, heat, prep inside and out, using clingwrap, using a torch etc etc. The one thing I learned about racing is tires are 100% the single most important factor in achieving fast and consistent lap times. Spec tire classes are cool but open it up to a full open class.

@DPoner 6 лет назад

Clay is so foreign to me. I run on an outdoor dirt track. Just slap the tires on and go! Blockades are my fave rn. Wish they made Gladiators for buggys. Those are great on loose tracks.

Question regarding burning in prep, is it possible to do this method with mini pins? I'm running mini-pin tires on carpet and it seems like this method may be tough to use for that style of tread. Or maybe I don't need to burn prep in for carpet racing? Thanks again!

@Diper1981 3 года назад

Dear Ryan, congrats on your channel! It is really nice to see someone do something he really likes. I’m sure everybody enjoys watching your videos as much as me. I would like to ask one questing regarding the inserts of my B74.1. After going through some setup sheets to see what most people do in an astroturf situation, i came through some cases where people choose not to use inserts in the front wheels, so i decided next time to have two different pairs glued and ready to run, one with and one without inserts, just to see the difference. What is the theory behind this approach? Thank you for your time!
