Difference between 2WD Stagger and 2WD Mini-Pin
Hi guys!
Here's a question for you 2WD junkees. Where's the difference (in driving  ) between the SchumacherU6609 2WD Mini Pin and U6592 2WD Stagger Rib? In Germany at carpet races the fast guys normally use only Stagger Rib. Is the Mini Pin more aggressive becauseof its pins? How about the wear rate? Sometimes at very high traction surfaces the Stagger is useless after zwo packs due to the fact that the edges of the ribs are "rounded". Maybe the Mini Pin offers more/consistend site bite? Cheers Seb

I tried minipins on the front of the car last carpet race we had in Langenfeld, After I had cut 2 rows off them inside and out they were ok. Very aggressive and you need to change the setup completely.
I ended up going back to staggereds because they gave more consistent laptimes and were alot easier to drive hard. If you are having trouble with the wear of the staggereds build your setup around the worn tires, because they keep the grip fairly well after the initial edges are rounded a little. Come down to Langenfeld for our Karneval-Race

Hi Sparrow!
That's a long ride from Hamburg to Langenfeld ...  And the missus wouldn't be very pleased if I am off to a meeting so shortly.  As for the Staggers: I hate their slim look!  That's why I wondered if the 2WD Mini-Pin will work. Cheers Seb

Yeh, that's what he means. Should be somewhere in-between.

I meant mini-pins... If you remove the outside two and inside two rows of spikes on a mini-spike you end up with a slick
 In the UK you guys seem to run indoor races on a load of different surfaces. In Germany it tends to be all carpet, so the grip is pretty high all over. After having seen the York video were are going to blatantly try and copy some of the jumps this weekend  I'll try and post some pics
