UST for me?

Now my cold has lifted and I am pretty much ready to start training again. So this blog might just become entertaining. Even if crashes are entertaining too.
To start things off, let's discuss MTB tires. Is UST the way to go for short XC races or? I have noticed that the lighter Fulcrum wheels are all for UST now so it is time to consider it. Do you just put these tires on or are we talking about some sticky gluing too?
I can go down to about 2.5bar on my Speed Kings without flats but the grip is så där when things are wet. And the first 3 XC races are just those which are soaked and where some grip would be nice.
Send some comments please...

Säger vanliga fälgar med vanliga däck med gegga i.
Slipper de onödigt tunga UST däcken och slang men man har alla fördelar av UST. Annars är ju tub riktigt fint att köra på!/ hansen
Hallå Hansen!
So you suggest a conversion kit like Stan's tubeless or? Once I do this will there be any chance in cleaning it or am I stuck with the choice?
If I could actually buy those Tufo MTB rims I would but I can't find them anywhere.

Det det är inget problem att göra rent det är ju typ latex så det går att rulla av om det har torkat har kört Joe's tycker att det funkade bra hade bara ett problem och det var att jag fick punka och det släppte luft en gång, men det berodde på att jag hade glömt att fylla på nytt gegga så det gamla hade torkat, men då är det bara att slänga i en reservslang lite kletigt men funkar./hansen
Which one is Joe's? Is that another like Stan's or? I haven't decided yet about the wheels but it sounds like this is worth a try.
Thanks for the tips!
Chris
