Dave, good run on saturday - the full spikes really worked for you. But on a slight downer, with this being a national event, is there a control tyre that must be used? Northy will know the answer to this one me thinks...

[Northy]

No control tyre.

G

[jimmy]

Full spikes are always supposed to be great on polished so i hear - but I never used them, mainly cos I never had any.

[Col]

Bugger

I'll have to watch my back then...

[Northy]

They are very easy to drive as the grip transition between floor and carpet is minimal, but they have no where near the drive and grip on the carpet. Not the fastest tyre in my opinion, by a long way.

[grindog]

Hi all,

Are there any photos online of last years finals so as to have a look at the track size and type of track that they lay? I hear there is some big air to be had off some of the jumps

thanks, john

It will be something like this:

I'm not going to give any secrets away about my track design yet though, mainly because I haven't designed one yet!!!! :o :o

WOW! Looks good, Cant wait

[Northy]

It'll be better than above, we have more stuff to build jumps with now! :)

There will be some big 'features', but they will all be raceable, I do not believe in building an obsticle course. :cool:

This was this years indoor regional track at the other venue we race at:

http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/york210107/bigimages/OOP_9805.jpg

It might look quite easy, but there were 11 'features' in one lap! Kept you on your toes but was very good to race on IMHO :)

G

[woOdy]

is there any places left northy?

[Spencer Mulcahy]

And me to G as I thought I would not be able to attend but now I can both days if poss. Of course Woody gets fist dibbs.

[Northy]

Woody (4wd), Spencer (2 & 4wd) and Footey (2wd) you should be in, just waiting for confirmation.

If anyone else wants a place there is still a good chance. Please let me know as soon as possible.

Cheers,

G
