Proline Super Swamper 2.2 XL

[JohnB]

FYI:

According to Big Squid, there's a taller 2.2 Swamper XL on the horizon:

Pro-Line 2.2″ Interco TSL SX Super Swamper XL « Big Squid RC – News, Reviews, Videos, and More!

The current Proline Swamper SX is 5.4 inches (137mm) tall.

More options are good. I did that back in 2012 @ 6.25".

Proline's response to my question of height on Big Squid's Facebook post.

"Pro-Line Racing: The original was 5.40” in Height and 2.05” in Width
This new one is 5.80” in Height and 2.25” in Width"

I figured as much. I'm certain Proline wanted to edge-out the 5.75" tall RC4WD tires. That seemed to be Proline's strategy with the 1.9 XL. Thanks for collecting the size data!

I agree but i wonder if there will be a tire size rule change at the beginning of the new year, especially since a lot of people are going to probably want to run this tire.

Any word or new on a pre order or release date on these Bad boys?:evil:

 

[littletoyboy]

Soon I hope along with some deuce's wild foams for them

Maybe a new class option should be added, like an overkill class, run what you brung. Theirs always gotta be a class for the BIG BOYS! !

Outlaw Class. We include that class when we run some events just for those who don't care about the rules. We are in it for the fun.

The outlaw class has been brought up before in regards to ar60s under some rigs. Seemed like a sore subject among some. It was the scale aspect and I see that going the same way here.

With that being said, I believe on G6 style events there shouldn't be a problem.

Either way the rules committee will figure out how to address this. "thumbsup"

when the 2.2 Iroks were released (rc4wd) they were listed as 5.8" as well. we complained enough the webmaster changed the specs to 5.75" on the website makeing them legal.
the sidewall still reads 5.8" though

i sure hope they fixed the bead....

if they fix these two items i will definatly change my brand new pitbulls for these.
