hi guys
im not a a buggy racer now but used to do rally x 3 years ago and we used to carry i think is was 10 or 12 different types of tyre and a few sets of each, which can get very expensive i did do a few meeting which had control tyres but no limit on how many sets (that doesnt benefit club racers at all)
now i do touring and i raced the ko gp last august 2 full days of racing and we were only aloud 3 sets of tyres very hard to do but you could see on the score sheets that people were trying hard to manage there tyres even the top boys would make mistakes in qualifying and just leave the track to save the tyres.
it does make it cheaper but tyres are the best set up change a driver can make bar none in my opinion, so if you have a control tyre that you cant get to work it can ruin a days racing having a choice is far better for that reason.
but all in all i would rather we saved money and had control tyres and limited sets in all classes of rc racing i quite like have to think about tyre wear and should i save them this run for the finals you get my drift
interesting thread be great if a few top driver could give us there points of view
