Arenax rnd 2

Ok Round 2 on the 11th December

As every one was telling us and we ourselves noticed that the tyre wear was high with the dboots we have modified the track with some prima gt carpet to cover most of the hession. We did tests on both A compound and B compound tyres,

A compound would last 3 rounds untill giving up grip and times did start to suffer these were tested by leon

B compound Carter did practice, 5 rounds, and 20 minute run at the end and the tyres had still had plenty of grip, looked warn but plenty of grip, no real loss in time.

Dboots originaly did there testing with both the blue carpet and Bearing Breaker Green the tyres then, where very good. Due to the green carpet not fluffing up and knackering bearing, we had to lift and use the hession which was not tested, A mistake on our part.

This is why we have tested the new carpet and tyres to make sure it will work and cost is kept to a minimal on tyres.

We Have decided to for rnd 2 to offer the b compound tyre at £6

There is no change in track yet, as we do not want to give any advantage to the the racers on tuesday night !!

We have tightened up the mesh and it works fine now have been running on a tuesday night for 2 weeks and no problems, If there is going to be a cross overthis time

Since last time we have sorted out tyre ware isue with getting some prima gt carpet and covered most of the hession up with this..

No new photos untill new track is sorted...late on in the week

cheers

If the wear has improved due to the new carpet then I'm all over Sunday!

Very pleasing to find a club that use criticism positively. Top job guys!

Thanks for the comments Andrew, I will try and get time to get some video tuesday night.

After testing last week it appears the B compound tyre is better as it still grips when worn.

As Ben as said above the track layout is still the same, and may or may not change before Sunday
