Chad,

yeah, those are mohawks from suprasales. i've used almost all of their tires. the mohawks are great for bashing, but not for racing. they do last a long time though.

i just got some of their parada tires and i'm anxious to try them. alot of people say they hook up pretty well.

Looks kind of Nitro-ish with the MMM hole on top.

I like it.

Mohawks sound cool on pavement, like the sound FX in old "CHIPS" reruns.
yeah, i like the sound of mohawks too. they sound like real tires when you brake. they have that scream sound to them.

as far as the vxl, i've tried probably 12-15 monster mambas and 3 tekins. none of them have taken the abuse the vxl-3s has.

i run it with the feigao 7L and it's actually faster than my buddies rc8 with a 2650 and a tekin rx8 in it on 4S. i can even gear it so it runs rather cool. i'm not sure i'd race with it, but i'm definately sticking with the vxl-3S for bashing from now on.

i will be taking it to the track probably next week and try to film an entire pack with temp readings just to see if i could race with it if i wanted to.

i'll always like castle and tekin for racing and high speed, but nothing has taken the beating i've put on that vxl-3S. since i got the one vxl-3S, i've bought 4 more. really. i can take pics if you wanna see them.
