    Carlisle Turf Tamers or Kenda Scorpions in 18x9.5x8 which one to run and why?

    Which tire would you run on your race ATC and why? Just looking to educate myself for a better set up on my 1985 Atc250r for racing in the Calvmx series.

    It's going to depend on the type of track you're on, but those two tires are very similar and I'm sure that you wont notice any difference, but if I had to, I would choose the scorpions. The looser lugs will give you a tad more grip on looser, more dry dirt, or so I would think, and I would have that over a denser lug.
