I'm running on carpet.
Rubber.

Marcos...Your the post master, any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

The Mi4 was developed in Great Britain where all they run is rubber tire. Carpet and Asphalt. It is amazing on Carpet with Rubber tires.

I switched from Xray last season to Schumacher this season and I was turning lap times on par or faster then on my Xray on my Schumacher's maiden run.

Setup Tips:

-The stock pivot blocks have toe already in them if shimmed the same front to rear, so always check toe on a setup station.
-Chris Grainger's Maritime carpet setup should be an awesome starting point if your track is high traction or has a groove going. If you're on a track with little to no groove/grip, I can send you a base I started with.
