I am aware of the different types of tires, Rubber, Silicone and Urethane and understand the different pros and cons of each type. Now comes my problem, I went to the seller of new and used slot car parts in the area and I took a couple of laps around his oval which has a slick surface. I drove one of his pioneer cars and it stuck like glue. I found that this car was equipped with Jel Claw tires. I asked him if these were silicone as we are not allowed silicone in either club that I run. I was assured that Jel Claws might act like silicone but were not silicone and they would be legal in any club that had a no silicone rule.
It is not that I do not trust this person but I want to get the opinion of others, perhaps the maker of Jel Claws to confirm or deny the silicone belief that I have about these tires.
Thanking you in advance.
