Don't worry about registering me. I will just plan on doing vidoes / pictures for the evening.

I will probably be there around :00

Hey

Looking forward tonight. 2 questions for anyone:

1. Does traction compond help a Mini with rubber tires?

2. Does KARZ allow traction compound?

THanks

I've found traction compound isn't entirely necessary with our carpet. It does help to use some for the first run of the evening, just to get a clean surface on your tires. If you're running new tires, you may need to apply more than once to get the "broken in."

Our current rule is Niftech only, but seeing as there is a supply problem, Roy will be bringing a can of Jack the Gripper to try out.

Aaron....with the 1/12ths you need it....with the mini's you can get a decent amount of traction without using compound at all.....I have a few different pairs of tires you can try....if you like....soon as the track is set up...see me and we can work it out!!

On the Jack the Gripper.....we are only trying this product....it is NOT approved yet for our use....we will try 1 run each (4 different people) for testing purposes only!!!

Aaron....and the rest of the crew....6 hours!!!

I am coming out...but probably not racing until next weekend. I have to be back home early tonight.

I'm 98% complete in the setup though. Minor details to finish it. It's looking freaking amazing! Thanks again Swampracer!

Hey KARZ racers! What do you think of this track design for next Sunday? Too much?



Just kidding. The track will be much more complicated than this.

Should we expect traffic circles and clovers?
