VP-Pro has just released a teaser CAD photo of their latest 1:10 buggy tire known as the "Crosspass." The tire has already stirred controversy and debate via social media and R/C forums, as this is the second tire in only a few week span to be released with near matching design to that of existing tires on the market.
 
 
 
Some are saying this is simply "stealing others ideas and hard work", while others argue that this is not the first time a successful tire tread pattern has been closely resembled by multiple manufacturers.
