Default Racing on Carpet: What to expect/how to set up?
Hi everyone,

Next week I'll have my first race on carpet... and not just any race event, it's the EOS in Langenfeld, Germany. Ok, chances are >99% that I'll end up dead last in the ranking lists, but I do want to go to the race with some level of preparation. So... I have a few questions:

1. How does driving on carpet compare to driving on astroturf (very general question, I know, but is it roughly the same or miles off?)
2. Any advice for crucial/big things on the 2WD setup for carpet (TRF201 to be exact)?
3. Are there any specific things I need to know about running dBoots tires? (they are mandatory on the EOS events).

Thanks in advance for your help all
