Carpet racing question? - 02.11.2010, 01:24 PM

So I have been experimenting with tires for offroad carpet racing. I need some input. I have three sets that are my favorites as of now... As set of knuckles on v3 wheels, a bald set of soft compound holeshots, and a set of hard compound offbrand's that I cut the lugs off of and sanded smooth. So far the best two are the bald hard compound and the knuckles... I like to be able to slide around a bit so as to take the turns without much steering, which the hard compounds do great but lack traction in the straight and short momentum jumps. The soft balds get a lot of traction and cause me to flip when hitting a 90 too fast. The knuckles get good traction and some sliding but are really tall compared to the others and also have some flipping issues.

So what else is being ran out there?

Any tips on the matter?
