The Great Sand Dunes Showdown (A-Class)

My Jeep will be sent out soon!


I would not recommend even a light sanding on these wheels. You want your car to ride on that raised center strip in the middle of the wheel. At least on the laned portion of the track. I made the mistake of sanding and it takes that strip down just enough to bring the ridges of the wheel into play. How that affects the car on the rest of the rolling hills I'm not sure but it slowed my car down 3 Hundreths of a second.


  • agreed... roll them first. If there is any issue get another set of wheels. So far most of the wheels I have played with of this style have been very round with no hint of ejection marks interfering with the center rib. — Stoopid_Fish_Racing
  • Good advice! I didn't delve into the sanding aspect during testing, so the feedback is good to know. — GravityThrottleRacing
  • Some of those off road vehicles can roll...really fast! If only they could fit on regular HW orange track... — ManiacMotorsports
  • i wish HW sold a wide track for the offroaders, and transporters — dr_dodge
  • Agreed....I wider HW track for these would be nice. — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
  • You know, you guys are touching on something that Slanman and Spoolheads ought to experiment with. — GravityThrottleRacing

  • Hey Dr and DC! At least go and check out your intro videos on my page. You dont be disappointed. — GravityThrottleRacing
  • Thanks! StoopidFish forwarded that to me the day it came out. — Dutch_Clutch_Racing

Brownie took her Baja Paw Shaker out to the beach for a test run before packing up and heading west. I'm very happy with how this one turned out. It will be fun to see how everyone's builds handle the new track. 


My Jeep was sent out yesterday!

Sorry, I'm gonna have to switch out my Hummer, since I don't have any spare wheels that are compatible with it, I'm gonna have to swap it out with one of these instead:
