Default J12 National Questions

Hi guys,

sending off my form in the morning (there's still some spaces apparently), and got a few questions:

on the reg form it says put down 5 frequencies, can you just put down 2.4ghz instead?

What are the tyres to use at J12?

What's the deal with one day nationals, how many rounds do you have and how many people get finals?

Dave

Put down 2.4 5 times, and then you can choose which to use

Grip last year was poor at best, surface is earthy and if dry, loose. Lee will probably be on JC subcultures Blue. PL caliber M3/M4 would be a good alternative as a starting point.

For the format.... read the bloody handbook so you know the rules.... 1 prac, 3 rounds, 2 to count, 10 straight in, 4 bump up.

theres your answer... mid summer, quite warm, dirt track and you used M3's and they didnt wear = soft tyres to get grip, no wear cos they didnt grip.

i dont recal saying they didnt wear...i said i used 1 set all day

the tyres wore but the grip came up and the soft m3 meant i didnt lose any traction so felt no need to change tyres,certainly not for my skill level anyways.

i didnt think it was that dusty,maybe our cars were finding traction where others struggled,all i know is that i will be sticking m3 crimes on again then maybe switch to HB megabits in pink if the track cleans up.

Hmm, no idea where my handbook even is! How many people don't get a final at all?
