WHEELS & TYRES - DIFFERENT RACE SURFACES

Tyres from Schumacher Racing are the best choice for 10th scale buggies whether racing indoors or outside. The two most popular tyres are Mini Pins and Mini Spikes, both in yellow compound with medium foam inserts. Unlike touring cars, bare in mind that buggy front wheels/tyres are narrower (thinner) than the rear wheels/tyres. When choosing tyres, ensure that you buy the correct fronts and rears. Below I have listed the most popular choices.

All the above tyres are suitable for 4WD and (2WD Rear Only). Schumacher also offer specific front tyres for 2WD in Mini Pin and Mini Spike treads. Check www.racing-cars.com for further information.

Your local race club will have an AMB Timing System with transponders. A transponder is a small RED box that clips onto the inside of your buggy and will time your laps as you pass over the LOOP (A wire connected to the computerised timing system). This transponder will send timing information to the computer and give details of your lap times and score your performance against other racers. Most clubs nowadays have hand-out transponders that you can hire for a club/race day for a small charge.

You can purchase your very own Personal Transponder (PT) direct from BBK Software in the UK, for further information check out bbksoftware.com However a PT isn’t essential to begin with.

And remember ...... GO RACING! and HAVE FUN.
