Default X11 indoor setup

Has anyone got any good tips for getting more grip indoors on polished wood, track is all wood with no mats on corners for grip etc. The car seems to be loads more skittish than others (B4's etc) and seems to have less grip all round, not sure if this a general pred thing or just my setup. Currently using yellow mini spikes, have tried full spikes but were even worse..

Cheers

Try using yellow mini pins instead of spikes, I used to use loads of rear toe in on my pred on slippy floors , about 4 deg.

worn out full spike yellows will do the trick...so that they have about 1.5 mm of the stud left
