Piss off Chris...:-) woody said we should go more 50/50 as well, just gotta keep Coleman away from the build ;-) otherwise it'll be all drop off and slippy floor ha

he he yeah need to get stu on the track building case!!

We shouldn't knock Matt's track at least he took the time to design it. I for one think the design and layout was actually very good, a good mix of flowing and tight corners. What wasnt so good was there was simply too little carpet or carpet in the wrong areas. Tight infield sections should be grippy carpet, straights and sweepers do not matter as the car just needs to flow and braking isn't required. If we had exactly the same layout as last time I'd be more than happy provided there was a 70/30 carpet to slippy bias.

My only worry is that many who struggled at the first round may not bother this time as it was so hard to get around for the inexperienced racer.

Oh yes i like that

I've drawn up a track design for tomorrow that we can use if people are in favour. I'm open to a few suggestions but I feel it offers a good mix of grippy and slippy. A few tweaks here and there and we should have a good valences track.

Lets got with it, either way it'll save time if we know what the track layout is

I'm sure people will like it, the infield is all carpet then there are slippy sections on the corners of the hall and a sweeper onto the straight that is carpet to begin with then the main straight is slippy.

What car you running tomorrow Chris?
