What’s going on everyone; the Scale shop has been running strong ever since we returned from Axialfest Badlands. With only two weeks left in the shop before the final move to Kentucky the scale crew has only been taking on small projects. Pitbull RC sent over some new 1.9 Rock Beast XL’s and a set of 1.9 Raceline combat wheels [...]
Frixion RC has popped up out of thin air it seems, carrying an impressive catalog of scale and performance hop ups. We got our hands on a set of 1” Braven Ironside Scale tires with the Alien Kompound from Frixion RC. The tires look great, so we pulled in our FMS Model Toyota Land Cruiser into the scale shop and [...]

We all know anything for the RC4WD camp looks great but how does it handle on the trail? Price: Trail Rider 1.9 off-road scale [...]

Question is… over here it’s primarily forests and building sites I get to drive in and we get rain…Seattle amounts [...]
So you wanna see a good sign that scaling is now totally mainstream? JConcepts, longtime uber hardcore racing company, announced not one but two scaling tire releases this week. And while I’m not big on the more “comp crawler” style of the Rupture tire, the scale appearing Scorpios is making some waves across scaler nation.
