The reality is that most turf just runs like really high-grip but consistent clay with grip from pipe-to-pipe. An added bonus is what it doesn't have - you subtract tire saucing, sweeping and that one guy who says "OffRoad needs to be dirt only!" and then whines all day when the track gets, "too dusty." Most carpet is much grippier than most turf.
I guess I didn't look hard enough! Thanks for the links I will bookmark them! Personally, im excited about the switch and feel that it will make for better competition and a better experience for all involved once they understand what it is and how to tune for it! I think it is gonna be awesome!
