What about BK Bars ? They seem to be nice as the blue groove surface breaks up a bit

I race on a track with the required taper pins. The panther switch 2.0's also work well and sometimes you can get an inside job to work.

not in the heat of the day Frank but there are a few who have run it after around 5 pm.

guys step pins or lugz are to big and would just cause the tire to defelct when you enter the corners giving the feeling of little to no side bite. careful about getting to big in your tire treads no matter where you race.

also i reread my post and noticed i wasn't clear on something that is that a panther puma might be the best for your track if it is actually that loamy and a true clay. the cooler your temp is at your track and if it outdoors im sure its very cool but even if indoors with climate control the clay compounds would still be the best choice. as a track cools your need and even softer rubber to get it to bite the track if it is too stiff and the track is that cool you will end up on top of the track, like being on ice. unfortunately it will be a bit of a cost to you to find which tire works best other than what everyone is running. if you call panther direct he may be able to give you even more info. that would help you out so it doesn't get to expensive.

Sorry, but never Pink Tapers. Sometimes RED Tapers when there is a fresh sweep.., but not Pinks. Pinks are for Clay...and SRS is far from Clay....

You can try fuzzy squares or Holeshots.

I love Fuzzies, at SoCal. But you need to buy like a case of them. They quickly convert into slicks.

Frank that is part of why you don't finish in the very top of the pro classes.

like cactus where he like others struggle to make the A's. plus the pic you show has Lars as the winner1 A great driver he is. with a bit of bad luck the last few cactus races he has qualified 9 or 10 and no Root in the mix. maybe it will be better for him at xfactory.

Seriously, you had to attack me... whatever, I don't need for you to think "I am da Man" to be confident about what I am trying to do...


Trying to help people here, correct some wrong info, and I get attacked, maybe I shouldn't bother...

yes iam sory that is truhe. i made a mistake there. and lets not forget that some of the top drivers didn't run 4 whl at crcrc. also. with that said Frank you are a veru good driver, and i will be at the cactus. and i will see how your x-factor cars on pinks run with my stuff. i will come to you and ask if you would like to drive and i will even give your the tires and wheels mounted up so it will be no cost to you.

keep up on winning the 1/18 in CT.
