Looking at the tcs rules it says big dog is using Rush VR3 36x. I would check with them though just to make sure.

- Exotek F1 tires.
- Pro Spec - Tamiya, Volante or Yokomo.
- Track is open for practice Friday 10am-dark
So go soft? or will softs not last on asphalt? I only ever race on CRC carpet.. so this is all new to me 😊

I messaged Big Dog on Facebook today. A couple of us Long Islanders are going to be making the trip so I wanted to know the tire situation. They told me it will be open tire for both F1 and GT classes because they can not get a large enough quantity of any tire to make a spec tire. Really looking forward to running at this track.

Same here.. very much looking forward to letting my F1 rip down that loooong straight.. switching to my prospec car will probably feel like slow motion after that 😀

Big Dog race is coming up and I am getting my cars ready, low grip asphalt, loooooog straights and wide turns.. I could use some tips on setup for my F1 and Pro Spec.. Here is what I am thinking..
I better come out on Thursday or Friday for some practice runs.. so many unknowns.. things to try..
- On the F1, since there is no weight limit.. go light.. gear up.. and go with soft tires.. CRCs or Exotek Red/Double Red..
- On the Pro Spec.. big battery.. but try to come in at 1400.. thinking about putting the one way up front.. 2.5 toe rear.. 1.0 toe front.. soft dampers.. yellow springs..

Who’s heading out to the Big Dog race? long term weather forecast looks good.. that said.. a nice thunderstorm at the end of the day.. finals on a wet track.. now that would be fun 🖖

I’ll be there racing Mini and Pro Spec. If you see a Gulf scheme on a Miata and Ford GT that’s me. Fingers crossed the weather holds out!
