Well, whenever AHR gets carpet from CRC so the track can open, and if ppl show up to run WGTR, I might have to get into this. Haven't run my new 1/12th scale yet, but already dreading buying foam tires all the time. Would also be nice if Serpent would soon update the S100LT to the LTR suspension, so I don't have to buy an LT, then the LTR comes out a month later.

1. Like we have said, if you use #3.75 up, a thin shim under the pod and you are done. We have a bunch of cars here running that way.
2. For road course, we are all running trailing axles, short wheelbase.
3. FAR from as short as possible. We are running .586-.596 kingpin length. This is actually longer than we were running on foam.
4. You can use another plate if you have one. We use a #3218 and a #3219 shim on each screw of the front end plate along with now using 1/2" screws. Total cost to convert a foam car to rubber, $10. I have personally converted about 20 cars here, and they are all done the same.
