Love the content, I plan on making my own donuts as well. Personally the best place I have found to get foam rubber is to go to a car show like Carlisle and find someone selling foam rubber mats used for working on the ground. You'll have to do some walking around to find a fair price, size, and firmness, but you can get large 4x2ft (or larger) mats that are thick enough to make rear tires in one piece for around $15 or more. I'm hoping with this I can get some old pancars running good again with some fresh foam on the wheels!
Awesome! Will try this! Tip i found online that werxd 4 me to get drift tires off: drop in boiling water for 20 to 30 seconds (depending on quality of drift tire may require more time) then remove and push with thimbs using paper towels or a rag or gloves to protect from heat. The wheel pops right out!
Almost Zero lol but I've run contact foams on my slash 4x4 and it had zero grip as well. but it was the only way to get my sg1603 to hit 81 mph. how fast it your limitless? I've hit 112mph with mine with no tuning or without removing any of the down force fin's I just drop in a castle 1520 1650kv combo with a 34t pinoin and ran it
@@chrissimkin8823 Newest PB is on 6S 128mph but last weekend I broke the 140s at a 142 on 8S it was awesome I'm finally getting some where the biggest bummer of it is, I think I'm the only person in south jersey that does speedruns lol I started with a traxxas6s set up and broke the 100s at 109 6S then move up to a xlx2 and 1717 castle 1260kv only to get to 119 now running a 1717 1650 hoping to break the 150s soon it's very hard to do lol TH-cam makes it look easy....lol I've had my limitless for alittle over a year now and yup I that's all I ever do is speed runs anymore lol
@@chrissimkin8823 how long of a run did you do on the 112mph? That's pretty awsome I was wondering how the 1520 1650 would do in the limitless I actually almost bout one by accident.....thought it was a 1717....lol
@@mitchellminer4596 ya me too. I'm working on trying to get my 4x4 slash over 100mph with the slash body BP 84mph @ 3/4 throttle then I crashed it and also trying to get my Mojave to hit 100mph on dirt and trying to get a wltoys 144001 to do 124mph 200km/h I've hit 176 km/h. Speed running is a no win situation LoL. You either don't go fast enough $$$$ or you crash it $$$$. I hope you get the 150 out of your limitless this year. I would like to see 137-143 out of mine this year I just need the snow to melt LoL

Good Idea
Thanks Budd cool video.
Hey Brother just found your channel and gave you a sub. 👍🏻. Great job on the diy foams. I love it.
Sweet 👌
Take the center rib out of the wheel or cut a groove in the foam for it possibly?
Awsome idea 👍👌...I wanna try it on my limitless, I like the hard foam only question is how is the traction with that foam
