It depends on your preference. The outside usually is harder packed, with the infield being looser. Choose where you want traction and DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT!

I decided to run the 2wd mod this year, so I was wondering about your choice for the fronts.

Is there a preference (from the GAS TRUCK racers) gimme your opinions.

thank you.

I think this would be the best, IMO.

Corners can be the 1/8 scale Amain guys, so we have good corner marshals for our A event.

Yeah, at least by that time, most of them should be awake and at least some of them should be at the track even.
