JConcepts 1/8th scale Bar Codes

JConcepts have finally released their 1/8th scale Bar Codes. The Bar Code design features an alternating bar design combined with the addition of the Y side bars providing uncompromising support for blue and black groove conditions. Available in yellow, blue and gold compound and with and without inserts the Bar Codes are a specialty tire that when matched to the appropriate track can provide amazing results. Designed for maximum performance when new or used as the design allows even wear all the way down to the tire body. Bar Codes in new condition excel on hard surfaces that have taken rubber with either dry or wet grooved conditions. Worn Bar Codes excel on indoor or outdoor clay tracks where a minimal dust groove has formed.

AKA Super Soft Compound tires

AKA have announced for the iHobby show the addition of a ‘Super Soft’ compound to their line up of tires. The ‘Super Soft’ or V compound as is noted in the part number is for cooler conditions when the track is transitioning from wet to a drier hard packed line that is not quite grooved in. Great for winter and early spring racing conditions the Super Soft still retains the relative long lasting wear characteristics that AKA is known for while providing that extra measure of traction for the trickiest of surface conditions. This new compound is available in all tread patterns for both buggy and truggy.
