Looking forward for tomorrow... good bit of people practicing today...
I tried the foam tires on my UF1 spec car... trued the tires 2mm to match same diameter of the Shimizu rubber we usually use and that's it... car has a good balance on Zen foams and slightly more grip then rubber, but not "on rails" like Tamiya foam ....
I'm also running the foam class because the main is 100 laps and that comes out to about 18 minute main
By the way Hideo said its cool to sauce the tires for this race...

Had a great time today... The 100 lap main was pretty cool, especially when all of our tires were giving out in the last few minutes 
Hideo is already talking about next years race and how he's going to convince at least three guys from Japan to come...

Hideo, thank you for bringing a round of the F1 RCGP to the US. Competition was very strong and one small mistake was costly. Hope you came back during UF1 Winter series to race with us and look forward to a 2014 round of the F1 RCGP race. For sure will have an extra chassis for foam tire next year.
Sean, thank you for hosting the event and Johnny for keeping us informed and amused of the on track antics. I think that was the first time we ran 10 F1 cars in a race ever at TQ. Traffic was tricky at times coming up on two or three other cars that were battling but I think overall everybody did a really good job in the A main.
