Eddie-We're heading up Sun to test some tires. hopefully we'll figure out what works best. Not sure what all brands Tony will stock. I know he has BSR and probably JACO.

Well, no one has really done any serious running on the carpet track to know what's fast yet. So, come everyone should be in the same boat, lol.

brandon won the first two heats i won the third, but Freddie won the main. brandon told me to run a motor that hadnt been broke in yet and it showed. but after the races me and brandon ended up getting alot faster than what we had been running. so maybe next time. as far as lap times though i dont remeber of the top of my head, except when i won and i turned 51 at 4:04.

LOL, No carpet isn't for walking on , its for wiping crap off of your shoes before you walk on concrete!


I have ran a many of lap on the rug. Its like running dirt, I get very dirty everytime I play with foams. Any oval track is better than no oval track, even carpet!

What kind of tire traction compound are you guys using for this track? :confused:

wowracer1
11-19-2004, 04:12 PM
Jack the Gripper from Corally
TQ Compounds
Stick ET
all the above have low to no Odor such as the Paragon or other types of compound that work really well but smell too much in the confines of the indoor track.

Wintergreen or other high odor compounds are not allowed but just in case you don't have any of the no-smellum sauce there is plenty on sale at the track.
