Thanks guys, i know i don't have a whole lot of power but i've had alot of people i've talked to say i'd probably need tubes/screws, or i wouldn't need them. I'll probably launch at over 3,000rpm so i was just concerned about air loss around the bead. I was pretty darn sure i wouldn't have enough power to twist the tire on the rim since i don't have that much, but this answers my question.
It wouldn't hurt to have an inner tube though, i'm just concerned about the slicks losing air and getting wobbly at the top end of the track. If i can get away without inner tubes i'll do it, but i'd like to put safety first (if it is actually an issue).
I just want to verify.....i won't have to use tubes? If not, that's cool. Thanks again,
