Just watched the video, the facility looks great!

If I am over that part of the country on work I'll bring my racing gear and come along.

What tyres do you guys run in there?

Mark, it's a bit of a grey area (for some) as it depends on just how much carpet/tarmac the layout contains.

For me, it's yellow minispikes every time as on the tarmac there's nothing better and they are very forgiving on the carpet. I used one set of fronts and two sets of rears for around 8 meetings so it works out cheap and you can use up all your part worns before you acetone them. For others it's yellow minipins but I find them a bit "grabby" on the carpet and nowhere near enough on the tarmac. It's just down to personal preference really, but if you've got worn sets of both it's best to bring them along and try to see what suits you.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the advice, good way to use up some part worn Tyres, I have spike and pins in my tyre box so good to go!

Hi mate, not sure what the lads are running on their 2wd but the options are probably yellow staggered ribs, yellow minispikes or yellow minipins on the front and yellow minispikes or yellow minipins on the rear

[Smartalec]

I'm reliably informed that there could be quite a lot more carpet down this time so judgment on the tyres might have to be left to on the day. I'm also pretty sure that the Moto Arena shop has stock of Schumacher tyres, perhaps Matt can confirm this?
