I'll be there! Apparently the track is all grass at the moment but I'm waiting to hear back from Birdy on what the track might be like...

Take all astro/grass tyres

Hmm, last year when I did a bit of elec 8th I ended up using Kamikaze's on grass as well as dirt, I was only going to take my old set of them (for if the grass rips up and leaves dirt) plus a set of minispikes!?

I have got a spare set of rims and mini pins and angle spikes, was going to glue up the pins to use on astro tracks, might leave it and see if Angles are needed on the day!

Looking forward to it!!

If the track has just been mowed and there is loose grass then angle spikes. Once any loose grass has been cleared off the step ups.

Ive been trying to find photos of video, but there is very little of Biggin. Has anybody got anything?

Whats the score with the track through the day, does it churn up and become badly rutted?

Well, my choice is minispikes, revolvers, kamikaze's and one of pins/angles. This tyre choice in 8th does my head in!!!

Think I'll just stick with minispikes with kamikaze backup for if it's too grippy or when it turns to dirt!

Thought there was permission for 12 meetings, did someone comain after the first??

Not to jump on a bandwagon, but with how the UK is for people complaining, we really need elec 8th to take off!

Jeez, multiple people calling me a gayo in the space of a few minutes in here

Noise is good, sadly councils don't agree

Full scale race tracks have the same problem sadly...
