Howdy,

I am planning setting up a new indoor racing circuit where I live (Adelaide, Australia), initially it will be a temporary indoor circuit and perhaps one day will be permanent.

I have come across a stumbling block, what type of carpet is suitable for indoor racing? IE what type of carpet was used at the Snowbirds or the ROAR carpet nats? Are there any additives that need to be added to the carpet to prevent static or enhance grip?

Any tips welcomed

i have also seen some track use a automotive type carpet from home depot.... it works very well and is alot cheaper...

The Black Kat

Ozite is an anti-static high grip carpeting I hear is also used in buisinesses that are filled with computers.

Very high traction

Fanfare is another very good option.I think it a dupont product.

I am almost positive that Fanfare is what is used at the Snowbirds, and Ozite was used at the indoor champs. You can e-mail Mike Boylan (Snowbirds) and ask him about the carpet.
