BattleBots: Winner of the Unique Application Award! Carefree Tire has it work cut out for them.

A while ago, Gage Cauchois asked us if we thought Carefree Tires would work for his BattleBot, Vlad the Impaler (sponsored by Loctite). Well, three years and a few championships later, Vlad the Impaler is still riding on the original set of Carefree Tires! Even with parts of the tire missing, I still plan to have a few more "duels" with this same tire before I change it."

BattleBots is the emerging sport of live robotic combat. Each contestant designs and builds radio controlled robots weighing up to 488 lbs., that employ an array of destructive weaponry such as hammers, saws, and spikes with the goal of destroying the opponent's robot.
