Jason...Just wanted to commend you on coming up with a truely unique and awsome looking kit. I know that it is a lot of work and a major PITA. You may recall the Racetech G-Force oval car kit that we came out with back in 1996. We also used a lot of IRS parts and have to say the Dave Irrgang makes first class stuff! Best of luck with the new venture and from the looks of the kit, I may just have to try one in Masters if I make a come back.
thanks steve.i do remember your kit.that was a real sick car.
dave is a hell of a nice guy to work with and his parts are top notch.
it is quite a venture doing this kit.we have had our share of headaches trying to get it just right but it now seems like it was all worth it.the performance really did exceed my expectations. thanks again for the support. if you decide to make the comeback let me know

Are you going to put "What accessories are needed" on the info page?

I just bought some garage sell pink/double-pink foam tires to prepair for 12pan return with DB12R. All the sudden, my local indoor track change surface from asphalt to carpet Are pink/double-pink ok to run on very-new carpet? or I should start with harder foam like purple??

double pink will work good on low to medium bite. we are going to be messing with some of the new jaco compounds to see what the new stuff will bring.i will be trying lylac fronts which jack told me are supposed to be between a purple and a double pink.i will let you know what i find as to what is the hot ticket.double pink and pink rears seem to work great but if the bite gets real high i would try a yellow rear.

Are pink/double-pink ok to run on very-new carpet? or I should start with harder foam like purple??Why would anyone ruin a good track by putting carpet on it?
carpet cost major $$$$ and then to glue it down....
