last years track if it can help anyone provide a starting setup

Schumacher yellow mini pins or spikes should be the tyre choice if they do a similar track concept. They may even have astro this year . Grey carpet is GT Prima Felt in the video I believe and painted plywood for the ramps / jumps. Can't recall if paint was 'gritted'

Hi mate,

ive looked at the pictures from last years track and it seems to be mainly carpet, apart from the jumps.

Here is a set up i used at West Bridgeford which is all carpet and looks very similar to the carpet used at the Petit track.

Should be a good starting point

Check on ebay for metric drill sets. There's a link on oOple somewhere for them, I can't find it right now.

Also, you could try the american sizes:
#54 (~1.4mm)
#55 (~1.3mm)
#56 (~1.2mm)
#57

These are the piston sizes for Losi pistons.
