hahahaha, NICE! That musta been so fun for the drivers. My serpent is just about ready for rain. Just gotta waterproof the servo's.

I've seen rain tires before that are slotted, can't imagine they'd last long the way they are cut.

l0l . so true. l0l cars will take a chanxce in the rain but all the guys in their big truks are scared to get em wet.(well most of em are) lma0 -Wes

It rained once at Gregs, we ended up leaving after the 2nd round when it was getting really bad. But before that I had a blast running my 1/8th in the mud. Fortunatly I brought my Badland tires (super luggy type tire) which are perfect for wet mud. After a few races there wasn't much yellow left! hahaha

After I took the hose to it, then the pressure washer at work the next day. But also followed by a complete tear down and re-oiling of all bearings. Oh and note that my receiver was ballooned too, so I can get away with that kind of soakage.

that's not true about off roaders!! we ran in big races where the rain was blowing horizontal and the mud was 3" deep and we still ran the quals. and the mains!! there no such thing as a fair weather racer

I have a feeling onroad cars don't like mud and dirt either. Never mind rain.
