thus i passed on the set. i already have the DW which are round and i dont like round sidewalls.

but you're with the bandwagon of pss goodness so you're going to be okay.

I really hate shopping for insurance, but need to do it keep my current agent/carrier (Allstate) in check. Nothing has changed but my rates keep going up and up every 6months. Frustrating.

Since returning back home driven with the new pilot sports about
200 miles...They launch very well from zero - 60....its a daily
driver and looking forward to more miles than the previous
Yokohama tires...

so i did everything i could think of to improve rf interference issue in my basement rc track. im still getting glitching on my cadillac of ancient fm radio.

looks like ill need to earn$pend the $500 to get the 2.4ghz for my faster cars...
sucks that i need to buy new receivers for them.. at 120 a pop.

yah, they're great tires from the reviews ive read so you cant go wrong. if you're okay with the appearance they are not only grippy tires they are light weight. i never really liked the yok advan sports. they were like S03's from early 2000's.

the pilot sport compound tires are a bit stiffer and noted a tad bit
rougher ride...

as my main play zone is a controlled launch or a zero to 60 play area
the pilot sports fits the bill that I was seeking...

Very happy and thank you for all your sincere help Doctor KenChan..

kenchan · 11-04-2014, 11:49 AM

so clifford which radio do you use on your nitro car?
im thinking about getting the futaba 4PKS-R

not really torn but the choice have been M12, MT4S, or the 4PKS-R.

my kid luved that spektrum radio im lending to him (dx4c or something it was called).
it's lightweight and grip is small so even his little hand can reach the trigger.

the unit feels too cheap for me to use.

That's right. It's an Airbus.
