Cheers Rich.

What time does booking in start on Sunday?

Also what tyres work for 4wd? I am assuming mini-pins rear and 2wd low-profile cut staggers on the front?

Cheers
Simon

Sorry Simon on holiday at this time

Thank you

Ian Knight

is there a booking in list

Not at this time still at work

Hi me an my son are still fairly new to raceing but thinking about coming along to the next winter round.
Is there a junior class for 2wd ?
Also what tyres do most people use for 2wd's?

The juniors will be put in with the heats of there ability so I'm aware my lad races in the normal heat which is good

As for tyres pre scrubbed mini pins rear and cut staggers front

Me an son have booked in for the next round on the 13th.
Is there any rules an regs that I need to be aware of?
As don't wanna turn up an have some thing missing etc etc as this is our first time at a different club/track
I know what tyres what need now but unsure about the pre scrub mini pins?
Also what time do people start turning up from?
Many thanks for any info

As for the "pre-scrubbed" tyres - The track is a mixture of carpet and slippy wooden sections. Brand new "square edged" mini pins can be a bit lively on the wooden sections but once they have been run for a bit, 2-3 heats, and the spikes profile becomes a little rounded, the cars handleing becomes much more managable.
