The ice is looking good for us (FVSCC) and we should be ready to race soon. Hope you guys have your studs/winter tires ready!

cfdfireman, how are you liking your studded tire setup? do any of them leak air?

 

Leak? Hope I got that fixed, the first event with just RTV they leaked some but I was able to keep up with a small compressor between runs. Second event I tried Slime and that sucked bad, I did like 5 runs and had to go home. Now I have tubes with liners like they use on motorcycle ice tires.

 

^ great! hope they work well for ya.

 

I am all set to go! snow tires are mounted on the saab and i registered couple days ago!

 

What snow tires did ya get?

 

ummm i bought them used on here, only had 1000 miles on them.

2 are coopers, weather master s/t 2s, And the other two are general altimax artics

 

those general artics are suppose to be good. I ordered a set for my subaru 2.5rs. We'll see how good they do on the ice.

We are shooting for our first ice-x on Jan 10th. Hopefully the ice will be thick enough. I'll have more info posted on the FVSCC website soon.

 

there's the autobahn in joliet..

WOW!!! That's crazy maybe we should drill some holes to make sure it's safe out there.

 

We do! we have a truck that plows the course, if he falls through then we wont be running.
