We just started racing on carpet, indoor cricket type. Very small track with more or less a slalom and a straight. Very slippery. Zero chance of traction rolling. Given that we probably won't get the chance to put any sort of significant rubber into the line (temporary venue), what would you use as your base setup?

I'm currently on the Asphalt setup with a 13.5T motor. Chucked some 20R sorex tyres on and they worked fine, didn't seem to overheat in the 5m runs, despite the ambient temp (~28C maybe).

I was wondering if it was worth trying the carpet setup, or if the lack of grip in the track made the more flexible asphalt setup a better idea?
