I hope the new track will have some technical elements to it and use most the available real estate.

looking forward to a new track, i really do not care if we use dots or not. i just know that in the past we have had problems with them moving around.

that being said this track change could not have come at a worse time for those of us going to snowbirds. i guess i will spend that last week before i leave rebuilding my cars and painting instead of getting the useful track time that i need on a good, high traction track. hopefully you guys will be able to get a groove built up quickly for racing that week.

Actually, in Europe dots are a huge part of the tracks. They will have a sweeping corner made entirely of dots. We always use dots on our track here, but then again, no one good races here..........

What kind are you guys using?...we found some at integy for pretty cheap.

Does CRC sell or make some?

Not sure I want to spend a bunch of money to have the members complain and have to scrap the entire idea. There were a bunch of people that could have used dots last night at practice.

Not to sound like a dick but a layout change would do you good. You ran this one for over a month now...if ur car isnt dialed by now it wont be. Do you think when you get to the birds the layout will be highbite on the first day? If anything if I were you I would push for this next layout to be run in reverse. Then you can at least get a feel for what your going to experience at the Birds n lessen the frustration. Just my .02
