Are there any more details about this series? Sorry for the newbie questions, but...

1. are there control tyres?
2. can you enter, and pay on the day?
3. how many rounds count?

Thank you very much.

Thanks for that.

What tyres work well at Kiddy on a B4? I have some pro-line bow-tie rears, some green Ballistic Buggies, and some kit Associated pro-line tyres?

I'm guessing I should be looking at Shumacher Yellow mini pins really?

Also, as I'm used to the luxuries of indoor racing, this will probably be my first outdoor meeting. What do I need to bring with me? Is pitting indoors? do I need a 12v?

Thanks.

Ballistic Buggy Pink Pins in the Wet, BB Green Pins in the dry.

BB spikes work OK, thats the tire most people used at the national (control tire BB spike or Schum Mini-Spike)

its outdoor pitting and unless you have or can share someones generator then you will need a 12v

And a table

And maybe a tent or gazebo if it rains to keep dry.

Again as chris says ballisitic pins work the best round kiddy pinks wet and greens dry.

Andyou course you will need the normal three crystals or if your spektrum you dont need them.

Kiddy is an ace track.

Does Tony normally confirm the entries requested via e-mail? I mailed him last week and have not had confirmation yet.

HI
chris will be at the kiddy event with tyres and other bits as per usual but if anyone want's any ballistic buggy mini pins then please let myself or chris (losixxx) know as he will NOT be carrying these as stock only to order.
we also have some stock of schumacher mini pins in so if anyone want any for the indoor season contact us at the shop 01527 577175 and chris will bring them to kiddy

regards mark
