Hi kenn, I've got rubber tyres on my wifes 9 cell 480 powered MRS4 and foams on my 540 MRS4, so far I've run my wifes car 3 times on concrete, the rubber is already looking very thin but not worn through yet, the foams on my 540 last a fair few runs, i run TRC medium fronts and soft rear (rear size on front) Both cars are very drivable but feel quite different the 480 is a little slower though I know this is vague but hope it helps. Couldn't tell you about my NT18 though, I've only had a chance to drive it once. |

adamc thanks for you reply. I can´t realy use you info because it´s a compleatly other car, and with an electric motor it deliver the tourqe a compleatly different way than a nitro engine. so ther are actualy no reason in trying to compare those data. but thanks any way. Today I did a few laps on the supplyed rubber in my m18 kit... lol it was fun sliding all over and drifting like hell(but controleble) but rev the engine too hard and blew the engine:-( well no loose it was worn down anyway (1.5 gallon of 16% mecca fuel) /kenn |
