Also interesting to see that the pace of the newish rally blocks and my bald mini pins wasn't all that different. Maybe the lack of grip that people were feeling with the bald pins isn't bothering me as much as i like to let the back swing a little around tighter corners anyways?
Interesting what you say about the tyres, I'm in two minds to allow both types as a control tyre - mini-pins and rally blocks, both yellow. That way the members can decide which tyre best suits their driving style.

The mini-pins are great, my problem is that I was getting through a set in 3 meetings!! At least the rally blocks look like they might give me more meetings before going off

BTW, I agree with your comments on racing, it's really great to race with others who are always fully aware of what's going on around them and are prepared to wait for the right opportunity to pass, rather than punt the leader off the track.
