Review,, 1.9 Pit Bull Growler, Prototype

[Big Daddy]

Agreed.

Dual Stage was created for ROCK CRAWLing.

Single Stage was created for everything else.

The dual stage closed cell is still being tested. It has completely different characteristics that are still being learned.


...Sent from the back seat while traveling to the St Louis G6...

I'm really going to follow this testing. I like stiffer foams and am willing to make a few compromises on forward bite to gain in off camber stability. In my Mad Beast I used 4.75 with firm fr/rr and so far it seems to work on my #8-#9 rig. Just starting to break in though. I like the single stage in my rockers for G6 type stuff but for C2 the dual stage seems to be working better.
But anyway, if I can get similar performance with a closed cell and not have to worry about the foam breaking down I'm all for it. It seems if the inner foam was a little smaller and the closed cell outer was a little larger it might make the tires more pliable.

I'm overly excited for these. I'll probably buy a spare along with foams from CI when these are released.

Damn Tim! That old Ford works! I recognized a lot of lines you drove there were I know I have really struggled in the past. That rock is a bit slippery compared to Utah yes, no?:lmao:

Yeah, there are some great lines down at Highrocks and the old Ford surprised me too. I think I finally got the spring rates dialed....it's a different truck now. That was all shot in about 30 minutes the other day after work.

And yes, everything's a bit slippery compared to Utah.

Is there a date for these bad boys to come out? I have mine on order.. Well preorder! Lol

Those rocks are pretty slippery indeed! I think those did really well on some of the harder lines. The video never does the angle/approach at Highrocks much justice. Hopefully I can make the next comp and get my grubby little fingers on those tires. "thumbsup" The new truck looks fantastic Tim!

We gotta be close to release two weeks or so I think?
