TRF Blog
I've been doing a ton of running lately at both OCRC and WCRC raceways, getting the track time and knowledge to get a running start with the TRF201. I am really excited for the release of our new 2wd buggy, from the pictures it looks as if it should be a real competitor.
My main concern is to have the knowledge to be able to answer any questions that should come my way about the car when it arrives, and I feel I'm definitely on the right track.
OCRC is a pretty consistent medium bite track, changes a slight bit throughout the day but you can pretty much get away with running 1 set of tires without having to make changes as the grip changes. WCRC is a very high bite track when it's wet, but the grip really goes away as it dries out. The advantage there is it gives me the opportunity to run on 2 extremely different track conditions throughout the day. I've also been able to make it up to Hot Rod Hobbies for a JBRL race in which the track actually formed a blue groove condition and had really high bite while the sun was out.
I just got home from a club race at WCRC which had a 10 minute main, definitely not used to that from my normal 5 minute experience on the asphalt side of things, but it was a blast. Going to head to one of the tracks on this Friday for more club racing, and then the same on Sunday. Having a lot of fun running off-road!
