The Pro-line carpet tires seem to work best on the rear and then about any soft compound tire in the front so far

I'm betting that the Schumacher tires like mini pins in a harder compound are going to work. That carpet doesn't look like it will hold either slicks or foams. It's not Ozite.

Is there any chance that our dirt tires will work?

They should work decent...while they last...which won't be long on high traction carpet.

If you guys wanted to race this weekend would during the day or night work better for everyone? I was thinking about having a free race weekend for everyone to come check out the track and get some races going? also what classes would everyone be running so i can start getting them set up on the lap counting system.

I would be able to come down on Saturday if you were wanting to do it then.

As to time, my only issue is that I would like at least 3-4 hours of open time to sort of try to dial in some gear.

Classwise, I will just bring everything and see what works on your track. It has been a long time since I have run off road on carpet. Really sort of excited to see a new track opening up fairly close.

That sounds good, We open at 10 and i was thinking about having races start around 2. My idea for the FREE race weekend to get you guys in here to test out the track and let everybody get use to it before we finalize the race schedule
