Schumacher mini pins in yellow or rally blocks in yellow or white (love white)

Dont think hard case lipo's are required, dont think they even do them that small.

1: This year the rules are different and the hosting club will nominate the control tyre for the event, so head over to www.uk-mircorc.co.uk for updates. (Howveer the choice will only ever be pins or blocks.)

2: Vampire do hardcase lipos for Micros, but alot of people use soft cell gen ace 1300 25c ones, cost about £6 a pack

This is what is commonly used,any other tyres, must be on the approved tyre list which has not been released as yet

control tyres nominated by the host was not voted in to the 2013\14 season, and is not in the rules

Hi Lapster10

As noted above by Rick there will be no tyre nominations this year, it was a proposal that was being considered but we decided against it. Depending on what nationals you are looking at doing you will need the following:
- Schumacher Yellow Mini-Pins (20mm front / 24mm rear)
- Schumacher Yellow Rally Blocks
- Schumacher White Rally Blocks

Let me know which ones you are thinking of doing and I can give you a better idea of what we tend to use

Hard case lipos are not required in our rules, just a lipo bag to charge them for health and safety reasons, I've used hard case for the past 2-3 years from Vampire Racing, fit into the EMB-1 nicely

If you need anymore information please feel free to give me a shout

Andy
