WHAT TYRES WORK?
Indoors on carpet at Ashford foam tyres
work best,
orange or blue foam fronts
and silver or pink jap rears.
Outdoors on tarmac at Barham rubber
tyres are good,
in cold dry weather Take Off A25's,
B30's, HPI 23R's
or Pit Shimizu D25's.
23R's are cheap and durable.
TTech Sorex SS25's are also
cheap but yet to be tested.
The same goes for HPI 27R's
should be good but untested.
In cold damp weather Pit Shimizu D20's
or treaded V25's
work well and in the wet V25's
are the only tyres to use.
Tyre inserts are also very important,
the moulded inserts
improve car handling and help to reduce
tyre wear.
Foam inserts can work well in
slippery damp conditions.
