Being away from the RC culture for 4-5 years ive never raced any of the current regional tracks and was after some help with what surfaces are at each track and tyres to use there. Im looking to buy them in advance so any help / advice would be great.
Im doing all 8 events both 2wd and 4wd and running a Losi 22 and AE B44.1
Cheers in advance

yellow mini spike will be a good choice for most tracks if they are dry :thumbsup:

Yeah that seems to be the main Tyre choice! :p
As Craig say Mini spikes...and if its wet Balistic Buggy Green tend to work most places..
Lee I'm off to Batley on sunday for a run outdoors if you fancy going?

I always find the Batley club meets quite relaxing and gives you chance to get the cars setup.
I will be taking both 2 and 4wd but changing cars as and when.

My batterys dont get released until the 12th and my Orion house bricks dont fit, also the losi is in bits awaiting front end parts atm lol. If everything comes tomorrow then id definatly consider racing sunday and have sat night off to relax lol.
I thought them bricks fitted in the B44?? I would just velcro them down they should be fine :thumbsup:
