Default tire choices

For those of you wondering what kind of tires to use. Pretty much any tire works. but harder compound rubber definitely works best when it's hot and dry. If it's slightly damp or not so hot out softer rubber works better. Proline and a few other companies make carpet specific tires and they work awesome, but are slightly edgy. Hope this info helps get rid of the tire confusion and will let you racers focus more on racing.

Default track update

Been doing some track redesigning with Booey, and I must say it Is starting to look like a supercross track. Going to make for some interesting racing and some fast lap times.
