Close Ash, greens seem to work best if it's REALLY wet, pinks have a very slight edge over greens in the inermediate conditions (but high wear), or yellow minispike in dry conditions.

If you want ultimate grip and don't care about testing the control tyres for Nationals run BB green minipin, you may need 2 sets of these.

I'll be taking 1 set of green spikes and one set of yellow minispike

Please for the love of god dont run pins.

Spikes are for the national, so lets just all use spikes and see what our pace is like.

Not 100% sure but I would check. Paul W' is heavily involved with the Kidderminster club and is the BRCA EB eligibility officer so might want people to use only cells that are on the list.

As I say not 100% sure but if you ask Paul I'm sure you will get a very straight answer.

On the back of the Lipo question. Can we use 2008 cells? i.e. EnerG 4600's ?

I do have 4200's but they're badgered, trying to save them for the indoor finals.

Just sent my message to Tony for 2wd. Hopefully there are a couple of places left. (Chris i have a few sets of pinks left) Also as i cant be bothered to txt ya. Im gonna be driving down as im heading back to home after the meeting thats if the golf makes it

Lets just come to terms with it that these really are the future. Why not embrace it and let people run them. Im still waiting for my 2008 cells and dont really want to run my old ones anymore but i guess i will have to dig them out for ANOTHER meeting!

My thought anyway, im sure there are good reasons not too run them??? I just dont know them yet.
