Ok i was only asking a simple question. Dont spit ya dummy out..

The thing is though you could have a perfectly balanced wheel, (lets take a B4 proline front) after 1 lap the wheel is so bent its unreal, i have one that will have 0 deg camber at one point, rotate it 90 deg and it has 2.

You will go faster if you dont crash;)

yehh well im working on that lee hehe. That was the other point i was going to bring up. How the proline wheels are never straight. One of the reasons i went to JC wheels. There actually straight which means i can glue the tyres up a lot better.

I do agree there BJ, the first time rich and i used them we could not believe the difference. It was a novelty to have straight wheels (well you get my drift) they are still round :woot:

Aswell with the huge tryre walls on they 1/10th and 1/8ths i would have thought that that would have played some difference in cornering with sag and stuff on grip/bite into corners also 'wollowy' suspension.

Ben with you saying Tom and Neil Cragg doing that with wheels i see it being at a natonal too obviously outdoor. Tom doing this at Batley which is mainly grass too can it make that much of a difference or is it more psychological? Im not dibbin at the guys for doing it in all fairness somthing thats true-er will work better merchanically but in off road it cant make that much difference!

Im with Col :woot:

im with col and garry on this one as well:)i would have thought there's plenty off flex in tyre's to cope with a bit of wheel wobble:p
