The muchmore rush tyres from the states just gone are awesome. If you can stay off the boards and keep the rims intact you'll get 40 plus runs out of a set before they go off in a stock car. They are $40 in the shop.

I'll be staying on Muchmore Rush 36's while that is the main rubber laid down on the track but for good life and Club level competitive grip Ride Red 28-32's or for a little more grip and little less life Ride Blue 28-32's. I've found for best life out of Ride's is to spray WD40 or Simple Green on a old tea towel and wipe the tyres clean then store in a zip lock bag.

Just a reminder, the points season starts this Friday night. So don't miss it.
From the looks of it there should be a good field of F1 and if all the Mini drivers rock up there will be some great racing 🚗🚙🚓

And there's also touring cars....

On the subject of touring cars we need a few more mod drivers, so if your out there come down the track is great now Vince has worked his magic with the kerbs.

It looks like I'll be missing this one again away for work but once back to that 5 day work week I might just pull the old mod motor out for a try, been so long.

Unless the postman is super nice to me this week I have no speed controllers so I'm possibly out!

Scratch the above, I'm in for Friday now.

Sorry gents the 2nd slowest mini in the state is going away for the start of the school holidays so wont be there.

Have fun and hope the numbers are back in force this week. Its good to finish early but its better to have lots of people out racing
