Default Setup advice for 2wd buggy's on polished floor.

Hi lads,

I'm racing my first indoor buggy meeting this Sunday and have been informed that the track will be Practically a 50/50 mix of carpet and polished gym floor. I'm fairly confident of setting my car up on a carpet track (I run the TLR 22 in mid config) but am puzzled as to what sort of setup and tyre choice will compliment both surfaces.
Looking at the yellow minipin tyres I can't see them working on the slippery stuff due to the small surface area? Can anybody confirm?
Also, how should I dampen the car?, will softening the oil to around the 27.5/25wt marker help generate grip and are there any other tips, axle height, camber, shock location? That will help?

Any advice would be greatly appriciated


Chris
