I'm finding this debate on tires is quite amusing because when I last raced a few months ago I think I'm right in saying that I brought back the using of foams simply because it was what I was used to back in my Procat days & I was derided for it now others have turned to foams. I have found that the best compound to use is the Contact RC 1/8th Stock Car Donut SE (which co-incidentally the cheapest at £4 a pair) this is a soft compound which I found to my liking, it is also good on tarmac & in the wet. Unfortunately for the past few months I haven't been able to race due to my partner being very ill & me being her full-time carer but am hopeful of returning on the 27th on which date I think I'll be throwing yet another tire option into the mix as I've gone right back into my early 12th scale days when we used to race on polished wooded floors.
In any case can I point out that I started this post for ideas to increase numbers & only myself, Rich & Mike Nash have put forward suggestions. Anyone else got any ideas on things the club could try out to make Mansfield stand out from other clubs & be the must goto club.
