This was some good info! Thanks man, keep grinding. Keep doing, what you’re doing👍🏽

The Pilot TwelveSeventeen bit is worth every penny!!

Another awesome video bud!! I ran “back in the day” and we’ve come a long way!! Great info, and learning a lot!! Keep up the great work!! 👍🏼

Great video bud. This hobby needs more people like you.

I learned from you on this, so I'll return the favor. Take a lesson from those heathens on the other side of the fence that do oval racing. Tire roller. Tire beater. Whatever you want to call it. There's two different styles I've seen. One with two rollers in a tray like your bath had. Keep tire on chuck and apply pressure down to the tire beaters. They're rollers that look like a rough pitched gear. Breaks the foam down. The other is a box with two wheel casters on the bottom. Put the tire in on the chuck tool. Slide a third hard caster down and tighten the nut. The casters do the work for you. You just run the drill. Five minutes and the foams are broken in. I'll take a set of your tires though. :)

Great info! I've used the first gen TDK TIRE SAUCE worked very well for me I'll definitely try the FDJ next since my local track sells that one.

Wow! Love the videos but Im so glad we race on Astro. Here in the UK I miss the loose loamy stuff we had in the 80’s but you couldnt pay me to faff with all that tyre prep for clay tracks. Horses for courses I guess.

I agree totally, I find just gluing the tyres on enough of a faff, and I miss the 80’s loam as well.

Thanks Ryan I bought an Arrma typhon v3 1/10 . I learned a great deal here.

I don’t miss those days, no prep drag racing is so fun these days lol... great information 👍🏾

Thanks for the tricks of the trade as always I learn something good content. Till the next one

Awesome work man! ill be ordering one of those tools for sure. I just started doing a version of this break in method using an adjustable heat gun while monitoring the surface temp of tire. i let it normalize for 2-3 minutes, apply sauce and pull after 5 minutes.

Ken Peterson at it again, the genius at Rattlecan!

Another great video Ryan, super helpful!👍👍

Always great and always informative! Great job RSH

Great video. my dad and I have been trying to figure this out.

The "V" cutting tool looks like a a piece of wood with dry wall sanding mesh attached to it. Simple but effective!

The information yiu put out is awesome

Thank you for this video about tires. Im just about to buy the tlr 8xe racing buggy this will help a lot.

I love that he is also in to the aquascape hobby but also a amazing racer

Tire prep is almost a ritual that I used to do !!! I often wondered .. is all this really necessary??? Washing , rinsing , drying , prepping .. the short answer is yes!!!

I start with 80 grit then finish with 120 grit - no need for the Scotchbrite pad doing it this way. I clean the tire with Simple Green then burn it in using a micro-fiber cloth. Prior to a race, I sauce it up, work it in with a brush then let it dry. For no prep, I'll also add warmers after applying my sauce (I use regular prep not this sticky, gooey crap that is so common).

keep up the good work

Another great vid.

thanks Ryan !!!

Great video, For me, I sand the tires in to where I want, then immediately put my sauce of choice on. while its still warm

Nice humidor!

Great video Ryan, many thanks !! What about 1/8 tire prep for outdoor dirt track, what is your strategy for that ??

I would like to know if you mark your tire sets and how, how to organise and store them and what to do with wobbly wheels. That's all for now :-) I really enjoy and appreciate your videos and the clear way you present them Ryan. Regards, Marien

Thanks harris

Hey Ryan really enjoy all your informative videos, would this also apply to 1/5 2 stroke gas dirt racing?

Thanks for the video @ryan harris. Was wondering if it works the same for pin tires for astroturf? Sadly I only have an astroturf track around me.

anyone else see that snake in the bottom left of the screen at 5:53 ? great video btw

Great Video. Only curious on how many runs you can use the tires (competitive runs) after all this prep work. Thanks and keep up the awesome work.

Fortunately in Germany we race only on carpet or astro turf. Put some Schumacher Cactus or Mini Pin on - that‘s it 🤗

Nice video bro, I'm finishing up a custom works sprint car kit I picked up to run at the outdoor clay oval near me. Have any tips for me? Would shaving my tires give me more bite, any other tips or tricks for shock oil, diff, ect would be greatly appreciated. I plan on picking up some of that traction in a jar for the tires.

Too bad i know nothing about watches ;-)... man if I was HALF as meticulous as you, I would be all set! Trying to get into racing this year! Awesome videos Ryan!

Tire warmers are great. Although I don't run them that hot personally. 150 deg F. For 10 min, then take off 1 race before my race.

Great informative video as always. When when you need to v cut an insert?

Another great tutorial man! You really inspire me to learn and stick with this awesome hobby. 2 questions if I could... 1. When you say a “run” or couple of “runs”... are you talking about just one lap? Or more like a 5 minute run around the track? 2. What kind of concern, if any should there be wit getting inserts wet when cleaning? I noticed no mention of reference to keeping the holes covered when cleaning the tires. I was always afraid to get liquid in there so I do mine by hand while holding thumb and finger over the holes. Now we run slicks so cleaning is quite easy and fast but I still try to keep inserts dry. Can you touch on that? Thanks for all you do man!!!

Thanks for the informative video once again!! You ever run at Lake Park ?

Awesome video & nice cigar humidifier!! What type do you like? I prefer CAO's.

Our indoor track is concrete, with carpet jumps. The track is prepped in the fastest line and the rest is slick. Traction rolling happens a lot to everyone. I'm not sure if I should prep tires on an already glued track. Edit: we run 1/10 sct trucks.

Also could you use an oven and heat several pares at once? If so what temperature would you set it for 130°?

How many runs do you get out of set of tires? Also we run mini spikes at our track, I'd love to see any prep advice you have.

Pro-Line Shadows have very shallow thread. Good option if you don't want to grind.

Hi, thank you for this video. I learned a lot. I am new to the hobby. I have been seeing racers in our local on road track, they apply sauce after getting the tire warmed. What are your thoughts about this? Does the sequence matter?

Do you do this for rear and front tires? I would think the front takes longer to break in than the rear in 2wd buggy since they have no power or weight on them

How do I find out about where tracks are in my area? I recently bought my first RC car and its been super fun to work on it and upgrade it over the last 2-3 months. Anyways, how should I find out about tracks and events in my area? Also, at what point is my RC even considered competitive? I have a 1/18 scale ECX roost buggy, currently I've got a 1600ni-mh battery and a 380 size Titan 18 turn motor, and 18 tooth pinion gear, as well as some 1/18 scale ECX ruckus tires. I get about 27mph out of it, maybe a little more. I want to get into racing it, but is this even fast enough?

Do you have a process for outdoor tires? Like holeshots?

Just watched your video,what is the drill adapter to hold the tire if possible please share a link

Great video Ryan. To your point of getting headaches from the fumes of some tire sauces, I've done some research online to find a 3 to 1 mixture of 70% rubbing alcohol and wintergreen essential oil works really well to soften rubber. 3 races before my heat I spray green METHOD brand cleaner on a micro fiber rag and clean my tires, wiping them dry with a different micro fiber rag. I let the tires sit until 2 race before mine and I then use a toothbrush to apply my 3 to 1 mixture. By the time I'm up for my race my tires are dry and super soft. A bonus is they smell minty fresh. I am in Colorado where it's super dry so you might have to adjust application timing depending where you're located in the country. If you take a chance and look up Liquid Wrench they have there chemical spec sheet on their site and it's rated as one of the most toxic chemicals made with all kind of possible side effects. I too was getting bad headaches from smelling that stuff. I wish more tracks would ban the use of it.

Is there a break in you have to perform if you are using slick tires?

Why are the top pro’s not sponsored by a tire traction compound company like stickykicks etc? What’s so great about liquid wrench as so many use it?

How do you break in rawspeed super minis? For rear tires

Turn the pilot screw in piece around, goes into the offset

Ok I'm starting to get back into the hobby..... whats the purpose of the v-cutting of the foam? is it just a weight reduction/rotational mass reduction?

The issue with tire prep isn't that it's a speed secret, it's one of those things that everybody has a different opinion about. At my local track there are about 4 different ways people prep tires and if you ask one of them, the other 3 are doing it wrong.

What about for carpet?

Hey ryan, don’t know if you will see this but I got into rc around a year ago, I really like it and I want to do it consistently but when I get into it, I go full out, racing is all I think about, I do nothing but watch KZread about rc and work on my buggy’s.

Love the vid. However...this is why I just built a 1:8 nitro buggy and truggy. RC racing is not (to me who raced a few times in the late 80s) supposed to be about sanding and saucing tires. It should be car setup and tire selection added to driving skill. That’s off-road racing to me.

it would be ideal if tracks outlawed tire prep so that it's just easier to race i dont gota bring a drill i donta gota spend the extra time littarly re eventing the wheel just to compeat ,.,. like just allow this shit in Mod or outlaw ,. keep it simple for the guys that want simple racing IMO

Wouldn’t it be more fun to just do a burnout to get less tread?

love your videos as they are very informative. I would like to see your do an adverse video about the downsides of tire sauce and how they have negatively affected the hobby. Serious health issues arise from the use of non-controlled product of which most racers dont know or arent aware of. In this tutorial I think you should have at least advised using gloves when handling the sauce as many of these recipes include harmful chemicals. Combine this with the fact many of todays tracks are indoors and its a recipe for disastrous health issues down the road.

I call this tire hell. Necessary to be fast, but I hate it.....lol

I think I'll just take it outside and do donuts in the street and get my money's worth out of the tires. Then they'll be track ready lol.

What about the wheel diameters varying from side to side after sanding (Left wheel and right wheel)? How do you make sure they are equal? I know in no prep drag different diameters left and right will make the car turn to one side
