What was the track like on tires ... trying to do a budget plan for the weekend .. looking quite scary at the moment .. if I can make the books balance then I'll book in and hope!

Belsten 03-12-2009 12:29 PM

no problem at all with tyres rog, 2 sets absolute max, you could probably get away with 1 set the speed you go round :p

LOL ... is that low tire wear because your wheels are always off the bround 'big-air' :p

Cheers, so 2 sets per car so 4 sets in total ... ok, I think I have 2 new sets and 2 sets with only 1 or 2 runs on in the box which would be fine for practice / working out where is the most spectacular to crash :woot:

Cool ... quick chat to the boss then I'll be booking in!

Cool!! that makes quite a force in the Kyosho corner!! :woot: as in numbers, not particulary in mint drivers! lol!! :thumbsup:

Big Air.. well scrubbed in tyres then are order of the day?

:thumbsup:

Belsten 03-12-2009 01:24 PM

tyres dont need to be scrubbed as there was a lot of carpet last year, you just dont need a new set every run or 2 or anything similair

RogerM 03-12-2009 04:51 PM

OK,

booked in ... paid so hopefully I'll have made it in.
Also booked into the Remada, good shout there Nick :D

im running truck T4 an great as only one real tyre choice lol
and cat sx in 4wd
On tyre choice a worn front set would be perfect as grip will be very high on carpet

mikeyscott 05-12-2009 12:53 PM

Now running a B4 in 2WD and will be ordering various tyres shortly.. Thankfully we running mini pins in the wet at Titchfield so they'll get used.

I assume ballistic buggy mini pins will be too much grip.

super__dan 05-12-2009 06:01 PM

Not really, they'll just be crap and wear out really quick.

I'm sure I used 1 set all day in 2wd last year (not making the A) and 2 sets in 4wd where I did make the A(s).

Cheers,

I'll be doing an order for mini pins fairly soon.. Prob go for two sets for both classes just in case. I'll use them elsewhere anyway.

To save costs I may get the pre glued combo from Schumacher for the Cat SX, but not sure if the foams are right

Going to get some Jconcepts wheels for the B4 :)
