$1800 per tire (according to the referred web page)? Now that's having money to
burn! I'm actually surprised at the mention of "any color that fireworks come
in" and then stating that the next color is blue. Blue fireworks cost many
times that of any other color, which is why you rarely see it (vs. red, yellow,
orange, green, white). If their using the same mineral as used in fireworks,
it would reason that those tires would cost much more. Ouch!

Subject: Colored Tire Smoke? That's Awesome!
I can't believe what I just saw on Jeff Cashmore's pics from this past
weekend's Peru National Tour. I was not there, so I did not witness this
inperson, but the Heller's z06 had new
Kumho Tires that put out red tire smoke
when Eric Heller burned out from a spin out I guess or he was just showing it
off after the event. I hope every racing tire will have that feature in the
future. That is just too awesome. Here's the link to the pics if you weren't
there to see it like I wasn't. The Heller's red tire smoke pics are at the
bottom of this page...
