Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Mounted new shoes on the CC Predator Lynx build. Shocked how close these are in size to the OG TRC tires/wheels. The brand is HotRace. They feel soooo sticky and spongy :D Can't wait to get them on a track for a proper test. It took a while to decide on these...I looked at Matrix, Xceed, GP Speed, C...
