I would go with Tomy or Tyco, the braids on Micro are a headache to keep in good contact with the lower rail height on tomy or tyco track compared to the MS track.

As the ages of the chidren are on the younger side, the ability to just replace the car on the track and go is most important, without having to re-adjust and shape the braids frequently!

For youngsters it has to be shoes over braids every time.

Setting the Micro braid plate and braids is not so easy to get right either, until you are used to it.

We ran Micro as the second class at the SF1 meeting without any major problems, just needed to tweak the braids after nearly every off.

By comparison at the DHORC 4hr Enduro only 1 pick-up shoe was needed in four hours of continuous racing and no tweaking needed either.

You probably don't have many off's as a 4/5 y.o. may have, or indeed as we did.
