Hey.
I'm looking for the GRP Molded Foam for 1:10 buggy, is it possible to get it from any UK shop?

Do you know if the foam insert in the 3 types are the same or also the foam have soft, medium and hard compound or only the tire softness?

Is the foam available separately or only included with a set of tires?

there are 2 inserts on this page @ Mirage (http://www.mirageracing.com/product/GGN21C,)

are you looking for the original orange one that comes/came with the tyres?

Yes I'm looking for the Orange Molded ones.
We have a carpet track in Denmark where people are using cuttet 1:8 foam.
And I'm looking for something just as hard that I don't need to work as much on to fit in 1:10 tyres.

Do you know if GRP sell them seperately or only included with a set of tyre.

Tamiya also has molded inserts that come with the Durga and their tyres as well. They could be easier coming across in Denmark.
For racing on carpet or astroturf here in Germany we often use monster truck inserts which fill the tyres more than regular inserts and give the tyre a lot more control.
