I run the Cactus yellows on higher grip indoor turf. When new, they perform as well as anything I have tried. At the end of their life, they go away quickly, typically before wear is visually obvious. Recently, I have been using the Dart more. They perform about the same on higher grip and also work on the lower grip track I frequent. One less thing in the pit box. When new, the Cactus may be slightly faster. The Dart does not fall off as quickly though, and I can move them from the 17.5 buggy to the 13.5 4wd when they reach mid-life. On high grip carpet, the Cactus is the go to.
Far exceeds reliability and overall performance of similar carpet tires. On black carpet, this is the go to tire.
The go to carpet tire at my local track (CRC Black Carpet). Dependable and consistent grip across its lifespan. We use them with the Schumacher standard rear foams. Some of the guys are getting 1k+ laps out of a set before they fall off.
One of the best place to buy Rc stuff and Amain hobbies carries most or I would say 90% of all my Rc needs and I dont have to doubt their Authenticity cause all their products are Original unlike those you can get cheaply from I dont wish to mention where. 2 thumbs up Amain Hobbies!!! All the way from Singapore (",
These do work well, but not very good longevity. They wear a bit quickly and the pins break off.
