Not raced since 2014 and I assume things have moved on a bit. What are the best tyres for dry astro to go on a 2WD buggy?

From what I remember it was yellow mini pins or mini spikes, but it looks like Schumacher have more in the range now.

Assume you mean 1/10th depends on the track ours is really high grip so its mezzos on the rear or jconcepts prisms. Low profile cut staggers on the front but these new fronts havent been tried yet so not sure if they will be better.

Yellow for dry silver for wet. I'd suggest checking your local club to confirm what most use as it may differ

Thanks for the reply - yes, 1/10th classic buggies, I'll be racing a B3 and a XXX. My local track is Broxtowe and as I remember the astro there is medium grip, providing they still have the same astro down!

Maybe different tyres for old school then I'd ask on their Facebook or whatever they use
