Awesome! And yeah it was time to go to AMB. As the track grew I knew I had to get the real system. So your PT is good to go.

No we do not run traction compound. For TC we have found and double pink rear and dp/oj work well. For ST silver, pink, or whatever you want. Most guys run green.

And we will be running a Saturday a month. The first Saturday race will be November 15. We race every Monday night. There is talk of a Friday as well. But starting the second Monday of October we will be running our schedule for the hole season. Any other questions be sure to ask em. Where are you coming from? Your ID says Ohio.

We do run Gojo hand cleaner, with the tire wiped very clean before going on track. We have tire sets for sale at track as well. I am looking into getting the softest rubber tire I can find and trying it out. Any recommendations on a soft rubber tire?

No its hook and loop. The foams work quite well. You need to soften the suspension some, but the track is really nice and a lot of fun.

I wish we could run rubber for cost issues, but since Monday's are free I guess you can just look at the foams as the offset. Foams last about 3 weeks depending on which brand and how many heats and practice you run.

Saturday's are pay events with $15 as the entry fee for all racing. No matter how many classes your in.

Cool Ill keep an eye out for you. The tracks phone number is on our website. For exact directions once in Richfield give me a call. Its very easy to find. Right on Main St. (RT 35)

I've tried DP all the way around, Ill be interested to see your setup for that tire setup. Thanks for the interest!

just to give ya a little heads up...lol....i wouldnt run the d/pinks up front.they will work great for the back...but will generate way to much steering.i have tride it there a bunch of times.it will work if you drive it really hard in the turn to make the car push.
to be honest the all around tire to use there is d/pink in the back and d/p/orange in the front.

i actually had a really smooth feeling car there when i ran magenta rear and plaid in the front..

hope this info helps.
