    REVOSLOT TIRES MARBLE EASILY
    My Shore-30 OEM tires – that I trued and glued – last night started to marble ridiculously.
    They gummed up on the cleaner, but thankfully I did not see any skid-marks on the track.
    Recos: –do not use lighter fluid when truing; –true to a minimum;
    –as Marty confirmed, the tires are very tight so gluing has not yet been found to be necessary.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
