Ok i just got a new 3.3 nitro 4-tec and its awesome!

i just need some advice on what kind of new tires to get because mine are already slicks!

thanx guys for your help!

EDIT: Here are a few videos of the car i got. At full throttle it can reach 70 MPH! 3.3 is the name of the car and engine made by Traxxas.

Thats Traxxas's commercial video. Here's a home video (thats not my video)

Get some good knobbys, they get good traction everywhere and will last you a while, untill they are smooth. Then they are fun to spin donuts with :lol:

I'm pretty sure that it can 70MPH right out of the box because my T-Maxx can reach 55MPH and the car is WAY faster than that. I've raced them side by side with my friend driving my T-Maxx and the 4-Tec blew it away easily. And once u step on the throttle with the 4-Tec it can't go straight because all of its power it just spins out right away.
