SweepRacingUSA,
I know it was asked earlier, but for TCS racing a 24mm tire is used, not 26mm.
What are your recommendations for an asphalt track (Jackson RC in New Jersey) when using Tamiya B3 tires?
I've seen recommendations for your Blue 2501 or Aqua 2507, just wanted your take on it.
Thanks
Dave

This body is great!! Ulw was tested and it transitions very well in super high bite black crc carpet! Only thing I'd be afraid of is body tucks, and someone painting it with my race scheme, as it is seriously thin!

Anyone have recommendations for different additives that work with Sweep tyres on carpet.
I believe they're QTS based tyres.

The QTS32 with LT insert is one of my favorite tires for black carpet. I could only find the QTS premounts with LT inserts at Amain and they are now out of stock.

After the first dry round of the BRCA Clubmans this weekend at Adur I got to drive the new Sweep BRCA Control tyres (EXP-34R2PG-B) and I wondered what other people's experiences were with these tyres. I used the same set for Blinky 17.5 Practice, Q1, Q2, Q3 ,Q4 and F1. I changed to a new set for F2 as I was loosing grip with the 1st set by this point. So 6 runs in total before feeling loss of grip and seeing a groove appearing on the inside rim of the tyre. In hindsight I probably should have changed for Q3 or Q4, but grip felt fine up until half way through F1.
Obviously it depends on car setup and track temp (Adur was a hot day with track temps in excess of 37C) but would people say 5/6 runs for competition is about right?
Also when is it best to change tyres and how do you use your 2 sets during the day?
With 2 sets allowed per meeting do people use set 1 for Q1 and Q2 then change to set 2 for Q3 and Q4 to maximize their qualifying position, then use set 1 for F1 and set 2 for F2?
I'd be interested to know what people's tyre strategy is like.
