[The Doctor]

I'm readying my SV2 for the indoor winter series () and am about to buy some new tyres (Monster Beetle has been sold now ), so I think I'll get a set of each and try them both. Not racing this week, but will give it a go on 4th Oct.

I'd prefer not to have to buy a new set of mini pins every 3 weeks, so if the slicks work then that will be really good. Chris - let us know how you get on this week - can you compare them to your new pins that you put on last week?

On a club night I think we should allow any tyre (not foams!) for off-road, so that our regular members do not have to go out & buy new tyres to fit with a new rule part-way through the season. We could consider this for the new championship from Jan 2014 if we find that they work on our carpet.

For the indoor winter series then I'd be open to introducing a control tyre IF it works on our carpet and IF it's not too late to do so given that we've already advertised the series. Not sure how many people have pre-booked already for this series?

Obviously any rule changes are for the Committee to discuss & agree; just offering my thoughts.
