If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

Yes, the semi slick anti leak tyres' profile on my bike is very similar to what's currently being concocted. :silly:

Even though I'm not quite sure I understand the function of these bits correctly... if I do grasp the concept, I'm thinking they're the perfect parts for double rear axle dampening on this chassis :

Edit - or do they work in reverse? :huh:





:woohoo:

The tyre mystery will have a revelation before the end of the next moon. :blink:

I'm guessing Traxxas Anaconda

I love the look of these tyres and they'd look great on those Street Rover rims.

Don't tempt me, man. ;-)
But I've been drooling over these for quite a while (before they got street rovered) :



:woohoo:

Rims are from the previous generation (Dyna Blaster and such), I think (they were given to me!).

Very much agree. Did you order tyres already?


Looks like these are anti roll dampers for 1/12 pan cars. Tamiya has a similar product (54413). Interesting...
