Ahhhh, but Jeff, remember, all it takes is the stroke of a pen to put any
tire on the exclusion list for STS. Anything the SEB feels may be a
special built tire, or a ringer for the class can, and most likely will, be
added to that list. And rightly so, unless you want to make it a spec tire
class. Building a super sticky tire for STS, in my opinion, would be a
waste of time/money for Hoosier or any other tire builder. STS should
survive on it's own merits, making do with what we have available rather
than someone sneaking in a super soft, sticky tire specifically aimed at
STS. As you know, STR is the same class except DOT R compound tires are
allowed. We don't need to mix and match....all in my humble opinion of
course...

.. I guess they are waiting to see if STS will remain a class...
