ah, another one who needed a break.
what I would like to make it more fun is some darn grip at times it can be fun indoors, but too often the grip is inconsistant. Really annoying when you're concentrating on getting the car setup remotely well and trying to get it around the track rather than actually racing. Doesn't help that mini pin tyres wear so darn fast, spend more on them than you do on slicks when racing mod outdoors

The low traction would definately be a bitch, I gotta say I'm glad that we have a high-grip asphault track out here... Get some racers together and fund a carpet track, you'll have a blast on that stuff, and it's not so dirty as asphault.

Well I'm off to work

I'm pretty sure Dave will bust out his Web Special. The Yokomo is doin good for me currently. I'll talk with Steve when the R3 comes out, see how it differs in track performance from the R2.
