Here's the new layout faster, more open lanes to pass on and good size jumps .

It was my pleasure. There was definite improvement as we went along. I hope everything works out well for your MIL.

Track layout was fun. It's fast, I was ripping off mid to high 10 second laps until my tires started going away. The double-double in the back is a lot of fun if you get right, and forgiving enough if you get it wrong. I really hope we can get a good turnout this year.

I want to try to make it next Saturday for racing not sure yet . I'm looking at practicing during the week though with the buggy . Looks like the layout now maybe will have less crashing madness and more passing lol . And yes I'm hoping the turnouts improve this season also !

I know warn Barcode clay tires work well on that carpet for me it did last season . And rib front tires to make it easier to drive, D-Boot tires may work not sure .

D-boots Nanobytes were what I had on my car. I lent you a set of Multibytes. The Multibytes are good, but they take a long time to break in. You'll have too much rear grip to start and that will lead to a real bad push. The nanobytes are good pretty much right out of the gate, but they do wear a little quicker. Mine started to give up shortly after you guys left. They have a few long race days on them.

I run Dboots Blockpass up front. They last forever.

Smitty is spot-on, except for on the front tires. I tend to disagree. I've run both and I have to say the Pro-Line Wedge are the tire to get (see end of this post for links). They are a narrow tire and work incredibly well on carpet. The car goes exactly where you point it. The only thing is that you have to cut the wheel a bit narrower. You'll cut the outer bead of the inside of the wheel, leaving the inside rib to be the new bead. It's really very easy. Just score and tear.
