Default Losi & Proline

Serious 'Anal' question here chaps.

Are the Losi yellow wheel and the Proline yellow wheel the same shade of yellow

Seriously, if they are not, i'd have to go for white, as it would just do my head in

Are Losi and Associated wheels the same shade of white though???

Just checked my wheels though and I reckon Proline wheels are a little more "neon" than the Losi's.

I think yellow front and white rear are the future:

the pred was dazed and confused with the Bj`s sexuality




I changed them as soon as i could get hold of some white front wheels, the yellows upset the balance of the car.

The pred is lying down ready to pounce like a cat. if it had a tail it would be swishing it.

I never underestimate the little things that do my head in. If you can factor out as many little annoyances as possible when racing it all helps.

Not that I'm a good driver, I just dwell on the little things.

I had to stop dwelling on little thinks as that is what mother nature gave me and it cant be changed.

I LIKE YELLOW WHEELS!

My parents had to come to terms with this and my work colleagues still aren't talking to me but I'm so glad I admitted it.

It's been hard but my life has taken a turn for the better...

Seriously though, I can see them better on indoor tracks with crap lighting

JConcepts RULUX wheels,

Maifield took all the white ones, so we had to run yellow

They weren`t my fave colour but they are an ace wheel, and in white are just be plain HOT!!

You know you want some matt, you kept walking past admiring them

Yellow must be worth 0.1 of a second per lap surely

They are probably no quicker but they will probably put off the opposition with the glare.

Its just whether or not you can put up with the humiliation
