ITP Mud Lite SP, they're pretty beefy! Or Maxxis Razr 2's I don't know if they would be that different they seem a little more beefy that regular Maxxis Razrs.. Do you think you could run Sand tires? Is the clay fine enough or deep enough?

Yeah paddles are allowed but I don't know if it's fine or deep. I haven't been there often but I know it's not really deep. It's like your average fourwheeler drag strip.

These would work well since you cant run paddles.

OOPS! My bad i must have read it wrong. Since you can use paddles try some Skat Trak Haulers.

no, dont go with the haulers. they are expensive and you would be kicking yourself if you ruined them. I used th have kenda geckos on my threewheeler and they were way to hard for the sand. i have heard of people drag racing on dirt with those. plus theyre cheap.

Skat traks are popular, since they work, but they are expensive. If you can afford them, there is nothing that hooks up quite as good. I see a lot of people run maxxis 4snow's in the dirt with lower horsepower machines like an ex.
