Default Tires for astro

We are having our first. national race on astro here in Norway in a few weeks and I really need some advice for tires on my Losi EU.

The track is 100% astro with sand in it. There`s a good chance for a wet track.

You can see a vid here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItlLjMJkS0k


All other tracks here are clay/dirt so I`m a bit lost. What tires and inserts to buy? Different sets for wet and dry?

Thanks

Runar

angle spikes with standard foams for the wet
angles or schumacher mini pins for the dry.

you can use crimes or losi steps in the dry too,bit easier to drive but a little slower.

Schumacher Mini Pins will work well with a Losi on that kind of track if Dry / damp, otherwise Hobao Angle Spikes for the wet.
