SORC rnd 2 Stonehaven... what tyres???

[aberscoob]

Hello,

What tyres are allowed for the SORC event next weekend at SDRCC?

It has been a while since i raced and have had very bad luck with tryes in the past

I have noticed a few folks are now using balistic buggy ones are these allowed and any good for grass??

now to go dust of the old Laser ZX-5 and see if it still works!

Cheers,

Steve.

Only the rear axle is controlled, you need either Schumacher mini spikes or Ballistic mini Spikes, any compound for both. Run what you like on the front axle. Basically it's the same as the nationals.

Usually it's Schumacher yellows in the dry and greens (schumacher or Ballistic) in the wet.

here's the official wording from the National entry form.

Control Tyres
: The 2013 National Championship permits only two types
of tyre for the rear axle at each venue.
Compound and quantity used is not restricted. Front tyres are a free choice.

The permitted rear tyres at all venues in the 2013 BRCA Off-Road National Championship are :-
Schumacher Mini-Spike
(Original & Mk.2) and Ballistic Buggy Mini-Spike.

Start the day on greens as the grass is always damp/wet in the morning.
As the day goes on and the track drys/grass wears down switch to yellows.

Kenny would this be the same for ballistics

Ballistic greens, Schumacher yellows.

Ballistic have released white compound but not really sure if they work on grass.

Hi steve, like the others have said, the above racers and myself are all normally A final drivers. all you will ever need in your box is schumacher yellowsfor dry and ballistic greens for the damp/wet conditions.

i have never needed to use anything else apart from the 2 above. hope this helps you. .
