That what we did at a couple of the Welsh League venues, club one side and other for events.

I dont agree with foams as lets not forget here that if you guys want to set a car up for buggy events then using foams would alter the setting for mini pins or mini spikes (considering foams are not allowed).

I think the best person to get advice from would be Craig Harris, as he is a carpet master and has beaten most of the best driver in the UK indoors with mini pins and min spikes, but also has used foams previous to that as well.
