For those of you that have a pullback
 
put the tires on your bit, it is so powerful after that. i got crazy grip and power on a 1 inch thick carpet...cant wait till i mod it it'll be a beast. one bad thing about it is the fact that since the tires are so soft, they pick up everything on regular surfaces. My tires were convered in crap after a brief run. it still has insane grip but for people like me who dont like our tires covered in crap, it's annoying to hafta clean it. and since it's so soft, the stuff sticks better making it harder to clean.

If you want all that crap off your tires, just push the car back and forth over the palm of your hand.

Heat 02-16-2003 11:59 AM

and to my amazement it actually works

xatu 02-16-2003 12:05 PM

Lol, I figured that out shortly after I got my first car. The crap on the tires kept getting to the point where it couln't even drive straight, so I wiped it off on my hand. Worked good!

Heat 02-16-2003 12:08 PM

yea i didnt think it'd work cuz logically speaking, rubbing it on your palms would just help embed the particles farther into your tires lol

my home track is pretty slick and the wider pull back tires in the rear didnt seem to perform extremely well on my track......:P but it does look cool, and it still goes pretty decent

Heat 02-17-2003 06:48 PM

well since your car is front wheel drive as in that's how it turns, the back tires wont really help you turns so you might wanna consider putting the front pullback tires on to the front bit rims. then it'll work better.

Where are you guys getting the pullbacks at? Are they import only? Thanks.

-v2oracle- 02-28-2003 12:58 AM

toyeast.com has them

Spanky 02-28-2003 08:03 AM

heres another way to keep the tires clean. Try cleaning the surface they are racing on!!

Gent 02-28-2003 10:30 AM

Since toyeast.com has these, does anyone know how reliable, and safe it is order with these guys? They seemed to have good prices, I just don't want to place an order and get screwed over when it doesn't show up. Any experiences you guys have had good or bad, please post them.

Spanky 02-28-2003 12:29 PM

yea their cool. only problem is shipping costs.. if your only getting a couple things your gonna probably pay a hefty chunk of the overall bill in shipping. im in sac too. maybe we could order together and split shipping.

Gent 02-28-2003 01:05 PM

Sounds good to me, because I was thinking about ordering a few things from there. Let me know.

My local hobby shops has pullbacks in stock. I'm gonna pick up the R32 and R33 tomorrow.

Swiffers are a good way to clean your floor of dust. I did it to my floor, and there was hardly any crap on my tires.
