Day at the track

[dougc]

Today I went to my local track to pratice. I was really happy becasue we finally have a track it is a really tight track meant for el staduim trucksso driving a 1.8th buggy was hard on it. The track was really hard with a light coat of loose dirt so when I took off I would go sideways and the jumps where good but seemed to close together. While I was there we saw the LST it lookd good jumping really good it seemed to have big tires. Some guy named tony tuned my buggy... My it is alot faster I had braked could stop before he tuned it but after he tuned my my brakes where shot!.
If any one could tell me what kind of tires to use on hard clayed overed with dirt.
Also If you live in MI PM me and I will tell you how to get there.

I feel you an the track built for stadium trucks. The guy that runs the indoor ROAR track here in the winter only drives ST's, and you can tell by the track. They change it 2, or 3 times a winter, and sometimes I don't even go it's so bad for 1/8 scale. Then other times (just to rant) when it is "OK" for 1/8 scale there are so many MT's out there putting around it ruins the fun after a tank or two.

if the dirt is somewhat damp, I would say a step pin style tire would be good.

If it's kinda dry, might want to try a bow tie style tire.
