Scott,

I=E2=80=99m not familiar with the US rules of racing.
On FIA racing they require period correct tires for vintage racing.
Means threaded tires for cars before 1972 and slicks for cars after that da=
te.
There are certainly racing series who have their own rules and allow slicks=
 or semis licks for older cars but this are special rules and not the histo=
ric correct FIA rules.

Now the problem:
In K-Cup competing cars of 3 decades 50ties, 60ties, 70ties and they all ha=
d different rules and different tires and brakes and modification regulatio=
ns.
Means it is unfair by design as an old TR2 can=E2=80=99t hold up with a TR6=
 and a TR6 can=E2=80=99t compete with a prepped IMSA GTO TR8.
They=E2=80=99re all different animals on different modification levels and =
the outcome is for a good part predictable.

I=E2=80=99m only a guest in your and run what I get told. I don=E2=80=99t b=
other about tires. It just needs 4 wheels to make me happy, nothing else.
I don=E2=80=99t care about threads or not. I even drive on slicks in rain i=
f necessary.

I don=E2=80=99t know if the tires are already ordered but if they=E2=80=99r=
e slicks, we cut them to make them fitting the rules.
If that not helps, we put WD40 on to make them slick.

Cheers
Chris

Its good news that we have nearly 40 cars registered for the Kastner Cup th=
