    I really like these videos. I have seen so many this tire vs that tire video where they have them on different vehicles or different wheels. This is a real straight forward comparison.

    I had my eye on the Predators, then I switched to the G8 based on the description (I mostly run in warmer weather but also take it out in the cold), and this video pushed me back to the Predators. Can't argue with that amount of squish, here in the northeast it's lots of rocks and not much loose stuff so they will be perfect.
    Also a small detail but I really like how you keep the label on screen the entire run (G8/Predator) - makes it really easy to see what you're running at any point.

    Well that's a very good testing round up thank you some interesting results .
    I'm happy with the fact that the element grabbers are actually a reasonable tyre it's time for me to get some more and do the block removal to see what improvement there is .
    Your testing has saved me a fortune in tyre's when I ask on different groups you get loads of different recommendations but none of them are backed up with Evidence like yours .
    I'm looking forward to your re visit to some of these tyres when they've worn in .

    Great comparison as usual. I run both compounds as well. The Predator can rip if you beat on them to much as I have. The G8 are probabaly a longer lasting trail tire or "daily driver". G8 little better at higher speed which I know isn't very relevant.

    great video pal , more should do tire testing , love your rock lay out as well i really need to do something like that , ide love to see the boom racing hustlers tested like this , i bought them and to be honest im not over impressed but the rubber on them is very sticky ???
    so im wondering is there too much sponge in the tire ?? if this is correct it is very poor on boom racing as the tires should of been tested vigorously before retail but i also think it could be that the lugs in the tread move around too easily ??
    id love to see you put them up against your prolines for a little test ;)

    Joe. Another great tire test. With that rear axle steering, I assume your tail is several ounces heavier than a typical 2WS Capra. Your 4WS is a full pound heavier than my unit. So, it appears that 2-stage foams are in order.

    • @ExocagedRC
      @ExocagedRC  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Bill Deras yeah it does add a bit to the rear. Still don’t have any brass to balance it either. Doesn’t really seam to affect it when on the rocks in front steer only.

      Bill Deras I could get the balances of it. I honestly don’t know but it has a little bit of front bias. Just guessing I’d give it 55/45 as it sits now, that’s only because of the battery placement.

    lot of people don't understand crawling. think its boring... its not, if your average race is a game of soccer with tons of speed and action, crawling is a game of chess where you need to be deliberate and think down the road several moves before you point your tire and press the go pedal. truly a technical endeavor. yeah you can have a great rig and a great set of tires, but you still have to have the skills to put them in the right place at the right time with the right touch. its like surgery.

      Andy Hernandez I can do that but they both will fail with the soft foams they come with. Vehicle weight would be the major determining factor on that. I could do the Superlite VS the Capra on that? 4.5lbs vs 6.5lbs. Would that work? I’ll see if I can get some 2-stage foams for a test like that.

    The predators will always be better than the G8 under the same temperature...
    The idea is you get the G8s for hot climates which will allow them to flex more once they heat up, The predators are great for mid to cold climates were the G8 starts to harden up.
    Yet you missed an opportunity to test sidewall flex.. The Predators are really bad on this on a heavy rig without 2 stage foeams.. Thats were the G8 outperform them.
