If I'm back from the wedding I'm at Saturday at a sensible time I'll be there. Looks like a big if though as the wedding is in Kent and starts at 3 so no way we'll be heading back before 9-10 I'd say and its a 4 hour drive!
Southports a great track - smoother and flatter than Bury but very fast.

Just thinking on Nick but do you think shu mini pins would do? not got any spikes for the durango at the moment so just thinking of keeping costs down if possible

If its really really dry it might work. Pins worked ok just after they changed the Astro last summer when it was dry, warm and the track had bucketloads of grip.
What adaptors do Durangos use anyway? I've got minispikes on Losi and Kyosho pattern wheels you could borrow (if I'm going of course...)

Shanks - its Losi fit then in which case I have both Sch yellows and Schu greens. Sch greens aren't as good in the wet as BB greens, but better than yellows.
