Default Tire Selection

Hi guys,

At my local tracks we run those Take-Off CS22's and CS27's depending on the temperature. They are great tires, much better than what came with my car, but they have the disadvantage of being slicks.

We also race outdoors in the evenings and sometimes it is quite drizzly and wet. I don't think slick tires are the best solution. Also our track is a parking lot (RC Tech in Daly City) so it can't be THAT clean.

So my question is, what kind of tires do you use when the track is:

-Wet
-Dirty
-Extremely cold
-Extremely hot
-Lots of oil patches on the floor
-Root Beer surface
-VHT surface
-Dark Black Asphalt
-Lighter colored asphalt

???

Thanks in advance.
Donovan
