I race Club40 and I use to race a lot of quickies, and Jett & Tettra bubbleless were the way to go. I have over a dozen Super Tigers and don't normally have problems with them.
The tank is the most important part of the whole set-up. The race planes rev anywhere from 16,500-17,200. Foam, balancing, and the bubbleless are why I never had a deadstick
in the last 5 years. Bubbleless are a little pricey and not everyone gets how to pump the fuel in, but a regular tank thats not leaking air or fuel will do just fine on any sport plane.
