c's got squirmy both front and rear grip. tires more than 3 runs felt more stable vs. new tires ( to me ) I am just a weekend wanna be though these days...
Thanks for the info Casey. I can barely hold on with 17.5 on good tires, I'm not sure how I'm going to hold on with a 13.5 and Tamiya rubbers.

Wink Preferred Terminology

Ray K.,

- When due to my advancing age or general irascibility , I may have done things on or off the track which defied the conventional wisdom, you have sometimes responded with words to the effect:
"Crazy old man"

- I cannot deny that I'm male, old and perhaps losing sagacity as I age.

- However, when this situation arises ,I'd prefer that the equivalent British phrase be used:

" 'E is a daft auld booga"


See you Sunday, you whippersnapper,

Rod

Alright guys, Ive had a couple people ask about practice this saturday. This saturday there are some out of town mini-Z racers who are renting the track space for the day so it will be close. However, I am not sure what time they will be finishing up. I should know by tomorrow and I will update all of you for the ones who want to come in and practice.
