New carpet track in my area
 
To my friends across the pond who race indoor carpet/astro tracks with dboots tires, what compound do you run? A or B? thanks for the help guys! :thumbsup:

Hi mate,

A compound is what you need.

Can you get Schumacher tyres over there? If not I think Schumacher will send them to you directly:

At my local astro track yellow minispikes seem to be the best on the rear, with yellow low profile cut staggers up front on 2WD when it's dry.

yes. We used to run carpet all the time a couple years ago and pins were the best. but i want to test other options. The track owner is getting set up with shuie soon to get tires. Any one care to comment on dboots tire wear? I'm gonna order nanobytes and terrabytes for the rear with nanobytes and block pass for the fronts.

I would think Nanobytes will be best; I used Terrabytes on a carpet track a few years ago and the wear rate was very high. Nanobytes and Yellow staggers worked well on the same surface with much better wear rate.

Did They wear fast or last a long time? I know that yellow pins last a long time but the dboots are way cheap where i am ordering them from. 9.00 USD compared to 11.00 USD for the pins. so I would like to get dboots if they last a while
