1995? IFMAR World Championship in Yatabe Arena,Japan

Post by mamadoesntletme »

I am not sure exactly if it was in 1995.
Does anyone knows which tires where used in that event? I don`t know exactly but I think they used to cut the rear tires in order to make then fit in 2wd front wheels?
Anyone has scans..pictures..etc It would very appreciated. Thanks!!

For both 2wd and 4wd, they used ProLine Squarre Fusy to conquer the titles.
In 2wd Matt FRancis used Losi Rib.

The other tyres used during the race was the Yokomo TR51 and TF510.

lol

Good question.
In fact, no so difficult, but really long...

You have to cut rears and glue them after removing few rows from center.

I did 2 set few weeks ago ;)

Nope

In front, Matt used Losi rib to match the ProLine's .

Just few drivers used the Yokomo tires.
