As everyone else has said, yellow mini pins are still the best. Mini spikes are ok but do more damage over time.

Yes the carpet will wear over time no matter what your running but if its just for racing then no matter what condition its in the grip will still be there. We raced at Caldicot indoors and the carpet was most probably older than me but the grip was still there.
