I'm on my second year of cross racing still using clinchers and only really feel at much disadvantage when conditions are really bad and those with tubs can go a little lower on tyre pressure with less risk of pinch flats. If i was serious about cross and had money/space for another set of wheels i'd buy some tubs for race days.
