What kind of tires does everyone reccomend for middleboro? I think I am going to start racing and I've watced some middleboro races and can't believe how fast you guys go over the spectator jump, what gear are you in on a 125 machine, thanks.

Hi Mike ,the dunlop 752 or 755 work really good on this track , remember middleboro is a rock pit , so something with tall knobbs, spaced out won't work great on this track because of it's medium to hard packed surface.What you want is traction so your tire hooks up.

Over the spectator jumps you want to be in 4'th band. The faster you go the easier it is.

THE BEST TIRE FOR MIDDLEBORO IS A DUNLOP 739 IT WILL HOOK UP AWSOM AT LINE "REMENBER THE STARTING LINE IS CEMENT NOT TAR LIKE SOUTHWICK" I HAVE GOTTEN ALOT OF HOLESHOTS WITH THAT TIRE AND THE WEAR RATE IS OK. IF U WANT A GOOD TIRE FOR THAT PLACE 739 IS THE TIRE.
