new racer

[cyberdog-styles]

Hi people

Names Rik. I'm new to racing but not to rc, so I'm going to start racing at bury in march on the astro track. Have bought myself a schumacher cougar kf to race with and am going to buy electronics in the coming weeks. My list so far includes:-

Hobbywing xerun v3.1
2 x sensored brushless motor 7.5t & 8.5t (not sure which brand just yet)
Savox 1258tg servo
Mylaps harry pt
Futaba 4pl/4pk tx rx
And a go
So i've already built the kit and i have to say the schumacher manual and kit is by far the best and easiest i've ever followed, had it built in 4ish hours and can't wait to get it on track.

The only questions i have are, what are the best tyres for astro, i was looking at mini pins for rear and cut staggers for the fronts. Which would be best for wet racing. Also are there any club specific rules/requirements regards motors, lipo etc

Thanks for reading and I look forward to losing to you all sometime

Rik
