I think most ppl run foam these days (if you want to go fast), of course using rubber will give you more "real" feeling,.. but if there's no regulation for the tyres,.. foam is my weapon of choice...
never visited JITC in person, but my "eyes" (hehehe...) were saying that : the track is smooth, and both tyres may have good chance on it,..."

IMHO, no best brand for foams, I'm always trying to get the cheapest possible

There are so many good tire brands in JITC. Many people runs different tires from many different manufacturer. If you ask me, I'm always using foam tires from GRP (Ellegi or Champion)

Hahaha... the main reason is : GQ Color doesn't match my painted body scheme...

Nanti deh kalo dah mau ngecat bodi lagi dicocok-cocokin dulu sama warnanya GQ yg ngejreng itu.
Btw, kalo dapet free terus sih I definitely don't mind ngecat bodi baru dan langsung ganti dari sekarang...
