Yes, it's not really an issue for National meets as we only do a max 3 runs on a set anyway. At club level there really isn't time to do all the tyre prep and re-glue the tyres, looking for something a little harder that doesn't need re-gluing every 1-2 runs. The tyre is also a little edgy at some of our high traction large circuits, I feel the tyre is a little soft so looking to try something different for club racing?

EXP EVO R2 PRO pre-mount (used at Reedy Race) are they good enough for MOD touring on parking lot/asphalt?

Also....same surface, for F1....what to use? Thankyou

This is some good info for tires. I like the low profile Sweep 32 tires for CRC black carpet. They have a good feel and good lap times.

Ok so I ordered some tires for my F1 I got E24 rears and 24 and 28 fronts. All grooved.tires hope they work.here in Florida at valkaria. I got the grooeved tires because we blow the track off but it’s still dusty with little bits of sand on it the blower can’t get it all. Track temperature is around 120 to 130 degrees and they also spray the track too.so hoping the new tires will work on that asphalt. ?

Hi all - I’m going to be getting back into racing EP TC, and I have some wheels I’d like to use use/test, so I’ll be mounting my own. As I will be racing on asphalt (Coral Springs, FL is my closest track, not counting Homestead which seems to be just Nitro focused), what’s the general rule of thumb for insert choice? Thanks.
