I recommend a nice homy bonfire. :lol:

Of course I meant to say boiling... no seasoning needed.
It's "koken" in Dutch so that was a "dutchglicism" that slipped... :silly:

hopefully they wont wear out to quick, i plan on a lot of "off roading" rather than spinning them up on tarmac

The surface will make a huge difference...
I managed to turn my Carson set into slicks within two months by bashing them on tarmac.
Other people reported they'd been using the same set for over a year.
Loads of fun though. :)
