Aye - your engines won't last too long with 76 - make a big bang perhaps!

For this year we opened the tyre choice for both teh Dunlop and Bridgestone prokart tyre for both wet and dry (Ross is correct). As yet other than Trev running Bridgestone wets I think the rest of us are still running the Dunlop which for the relatively short distances we race seem to be slightly quicker and stable. There will come a time in teh damp, perhaps, where the Bridgestone wet will be good.

You can't really compare the WF performance with a prokart. In addition to being lighter and having slightly stickier tres they also have more power. In the dry they should be 1-1.5 seconds quicker. In the wet, however, even on slicks they simply just don't work (cadets are quicker) - you have done well to move to Prokart.
