Calm down chaps, its not a posting for the water shed.

I always ran rim screws on slicks with inner tubes, but this season I am not running tubes in the hope I get more crush on the launch.

Does anyone else run without tubes, and if so; do you still run rum screws or are they less important as it is not possible to rip the valve neck out as with tubes?

Any thoughts?

Well , not running you're times Pete but a heavy bitch all the same , no tubes here , nor rim screws , the tyre moves around the rim around 2" per run , hence the reason for not running tubes.

Pete I ran the RR and the Bee on slicks and rim screws without tubes no problem.
However they do deflate slowly like a small valve leak so I always double check the Tyre pressures at the end of the fire up lane to ensure they are equal and up to the set pressure

Pete, some useful info on this thread from Andy Frost on not using rim screws but adhesive

I think if it works on his car ,you should be OK
