So, so much for any sort of argument that the ST classes, at least at a
national level, are any cheaper to run than the equivalent open classes with
regards to tires."


I run Yokohama AVS's at $70 bucks a tire, and my wheels are on loan from an
IT Racer
You can't get much cheaper than that!  Running on street tires, levels the
playing field
and makes it more of a drivers class.  Cars with 90 horsepower can compete
with cars with
200 horsepower.  I love this class!
