Pro-Line Prime 1/8th tyre & compound updates
Pro-Line’s Prime slick tyre is now also available in a variant for 1/8th off-road buggies while the U.S. company also introduce the Fugitive and Suppressor tyres in hard X1 compound. Starting with the Prime, the tyre formerly was only available for 1/10th vehicles and now it finds its way into 1/8th racing also. The special design targets racing on prepped clay tracks where slick tyres can be an advantage. It features unique grooves that add traction and stability when the track is freshly watered or when there is a slight layer of thin dust that would cause a traditional slick tyre to just spin. The raised treaded portion of the Prime tyre has a distinctive rough surface texture similar to a ground slick and makes the tyre have maximum performance right out of the package. As for the Fugitive and Suppressor, the tyres now come in the firm X1 compound, ideal for demanding track conditions or when racing in high ambient temperatures.
