    This all looks like fun…I’d love to experiment with creating tire compounds – but wanted to be sure you realize the rules for ThunderSlot say this:

    • Rear: OEM Treaded Tires (TYC002R) or Upgrade slick 19X10mm (TYR004R standard) allowed.

    Therefore, home-made tires would not be allowed without a rule change (which may be warranted due to the lack of tire availability).  🙁
