Hi.

Yesterday it was the tires and the heat - not the car. Solaris on especially the Glostrup track, which has a low to middle grip, in warm and sunny weather is a bad choice. Morten and Rasmus drove after the race yesterday two batteries extra with exactly the same set up - just on either Sorex 36 with red inserts (WC tires) and Ride 32. The cars were totally different. They were planted on the track and they could drive different lines, and they could push the car in and out of the corners. Especially the Ride 32 worked extremely well. The lap times were about 0,5 to 1,0 second better per lap than with the Solaris tires, but the best was the feeling of the car. By the way - the motor temperature got nearly 20 degr C higher - a very good indicate, that the grip was far better. And just for notice - then the Serpent was better than the Awesomatix.
