Astroturf
 
Hi guys,
Was wondering which kind of 1/8 tire works on astroturf (same as Kampenhout BE). As you have quite of lot of those in UK I figured somebody here would know ;).
Thanks

Trouble is there are alot of different types of astro but i mainly use block style tyres in the dry like crimes and anything from stepups to angle spikes in the wet.

Ho Bao angle spikes for the wet. Then either Proline: Crimefighters, Bowties, or Revolvers for the dry. Schumacher Mini Pins also work in the dry dependent on the type of astro running on.

Hope this help.

Thanks guys, I'll have some Crime, Bow Tie and Schum mini spikes in my box then. For the astroturf it's the same as the used on Belgian GP track.

best tire I've tried is the hobao mini-spike, but may be to much, then cut the outer row.

For schumacher ones, do you go yellow or silver? In 1/10 it's yellow...

Now that I have an idea for tire, what about 8ight setup for astroturf? Any setup sheet available? Couldn't find so far... Thanks

From speaking with a Horizon UK team driver, a general good starting point is kit settings with silver rear springs (instead of green).

Hope that helps :)

That's a strating point, thanks :)
