For what it’s worth I thought the decisions were completely right. At the start of round 2 The track was fine and I was more than happy to carry on, I did waterproof my car with blue tack and paper and then it was fine including driving through some big off line puddles I do agree though that maybe the track can be swept of puddles mid round to ensure consistency.
I saw an S4 in Woodies heat in round 2 go out with each of the (many) scoops on the S4 completely open = completely madness. I do feel sorry for anyone that tried their best to waterproof their car and it still got wet. I’d much rather race on a wet Kidderminster track than virtually any other in the country, bit of WD40 on everything and it was fine, didn’t need cleaning. I too remember Holbeach, A brand new car anf half of it had to be thrown away after 1 meeting.
Lastly I thought the tyres thing was ace. In 2wd I ran BB greens all day and liked then even in the dry. I used I set of net front and rear and then another already worn set for the rear which lasted 2 runs no bother. In 4wd I ran 1 set of pinks which look almost brand new after 2 runs. Personally I saved a fortune over my normal bill there and felt I was on the right tyre for me at all times. I do feel sorry for those that wanted 4wd front pinks and couldn’t get them but at least there were loads of greens available, better than the usual Proline/Losi stud fiasco.
