When searching asphalt set ups I have found the set ups from Chris Kerswell to be of most help but this may be of little use to you as your American tracks tend to have a lot more traction than the Aussie and UK tracks.

My setup is for a large open LOW, and i mean Low traction track. haha
but we put some serious power through the car, and its holding up very well. almost plug and play, just keep an eye on your blades, thats about it.

I would say we run on medium traction here. With the above are you talking about your Bayswater set up from the Serpent site? if not can you post it up?

I'll be running at Kraceway, I figured since it will be in March weather may be a little cool.

I'll take your set up too, thanks

I do not see how this is possible NUCRPTRACER when I have only seen him run 1/12th scale and you are doing TC's. you could try and catch him but I do not think it is possible. I might pay some money to see this calamity in person. Could be a hoot of a time?!?!

Miller Tyme, he puts himself into the wall just fine without anyone else's help. I have been witness to this. He is getting his shoes or is that parts broken in again?!? He has broken a few parts!! Been a while since he has wheeled a car!!

Cya tonight NUCRPTRACER!!! Its' Friday and time for some Friday Night Racing at RCAR!!!!!
