You can still find some at a couple of places, but the stock is running out on them.... The new proxes don't look good to me, so I am going to stick with General Grabber UHPs....

Ive never kept up on how well other tires hook. Do they hook just as well as the proxes?

They work well for me at the track... I have never owned proxes so i could not give you any details on them... At the track I cut a 2.0160ft (which is not awesome or anything) but it did not spin if i did a big enough burnout...
