We are running Sure Lube #4 in the 12R and 10R.
If the grip is high the key to not traction rolling on carpet is small tires...just like in foam sedan and 1/12th.
There are two rim diameters. Jaco, GRP and RC For Less use small rims and BSR uses a big rim. For carpet with Jaco try starting at 2.125". That is actually a decent amount of foam and you may need to go smaller if the grip is high. For BSR 2.25" give your the same amount of foam on the rim and once again if the grip is high smaller might be better. BSR's are worn out at 2.1"...not sure about Jaco size wheels as I have not run them real far down yet....we have been running on asphalt where you can run them bigger.

Purple front and double pink rears seems a good place to start. A synthetic rear tire like white compound would be good if you are running 17.5 or 13.5 to free up the car.

What kind of gearing do you run with this combo? I'm guessing it would be 64 pitch gears but would 48 pitch be better on a parking lot? That's where i'm running at the moment since the nearest local track is about an hour away! Speaking of and going off-topic.... anyone successfully start up a club at a local parking lot/public use land?

If i remember correctly, i was rolled out at 65mm. With a 13.5 i was geared at an 80mm rollout
These cars will really take off with parking lot racing. They handle the somewhat bumpy surfaces about as good as a TC but they handle MUCH better. The initial purchase and cost of upkeep are much less also than TC. I think it will give a nice addition to existing TC die hards and an alternative to people who just cant afford TC anymore.
