GRP Super Soft compound

GRP Super Soft compound

Following up on the release of the Conespike, a tire developed by GRP together with UK importers Mirage, comes this new Super Soft compound for the already popular GRP Jolly and Atomic 1:8th Off Road tread patterns. The surface of the tire has a new subtly textured finish which improves traction if the tire folds under hard acceleration or cornering, which has made a huge difference in performance of the tire. They have also been busy developing a new softer yellow insert to maximise the performance from the new softer compound tyres. The inserts improve handling on bumpy/rutted tracks as well as when landing from large jumps.
