the carpet isn't brill, we know that, but the running of minipins laster year, run the knap up on the carpet, as the pins dig into the nap, and lines it up, which made it almost undriveable for the saloons, as the cars would follow the nap on the carpet. And as we got to cater for different classes, we got to think the best for all.
Chris, with additive on the carpet, you won't be relying on the sharp edge of the spike, for grip.

Ok well i can see what your saying- but i allways found that spikes where more prown to laying tracks on carpet with powering out of bends and drifitng into a bend

no, the nap got shreaded by the minipins last year, as they are a hard small pin, and as the carpet is old, it digs in, and lines up the nap, which then makes the driving for the on-road cars, a total nightmare, additive or not.
Just trying to make it good for everyone who comes, and trying not to make it saloons against buggies, as you know, I enjoy both.

im not happy with runnig spikes in the first place- giving that the indoor finals and other wrca clubs run on pins- the whole additive is a put off to be honest and i cant see how im going to get any testing down with the b4 for the wrca winter rounds that i take it other clubs will be runnig and allowing pins - i might as well run in the bash fest that has become sc10 racing and not worry about the set up .
it dose sound that its a bit of buggys have to suffer so the tcs can get a good run. i know its a negative post towords the club- - o like cobra and the team who run it but man im not happy with this desision

Chris, think you blowing it out of proportion, I would happily run down there on spikes, and have done, and the additive does no harm. Also, I have not heard of a WRCA winter series, as yet, then you got, where you going to run, Caldicot are buggies and truck, Swansea are micro's, COBRA is everything, and none run on the same carper, so grip levels are different at each venue, etc, etc, etc.
Your sounding more a touring car driver than buggy!!

Dude, you have known me for a long time, trust me, when I tell you, that with mini-spikes, there is enough grip, not silly grip, but enough, and with the additive laid into the carpet, it will be better.
