You might not agree with it, but this WAS the original intent of the ST class. Even says so right in the rule book, it's a "recruitment and retention tool". I do NOT feel that it needs to be limited

Hearing your side of the story, I understand where you were coming from. My only disappointment stems from the fact that you didn't arrange this with Katie first. You could have told her way before s

If I'd protested someone that I knew, on the basis of getting a rules clarification, I'd have been sitting there with them. I'd have made it perfectly clear why I filed the protest and what my expect

Ron is obviously an excellent driver, I was impressed. As for his Yok's, they had less than 2/32nd of tread. All of the cars that placed below him had full-tread tires. -- Loren Williams | Homepage -

Thanks for the feedback. True, generally speaking, the best of the best street tires are very expensive. They are also not available in a wide variety of sizes, as you noted. This is why I propose a

I can think of at least 15 people who disagreed with you enough to compete in said class at Nationals. Does that not speak for itself? Let me ask you, how much money did you spend on tires this year?

This jives with what I've been saying since I got into my first street-tire vs. R-tire debate way back when. If your tires are 15" or smaller, R-tires are not necessarily cheaper. If your tires are 1

You're exactly as much help as Dennis Grant was on this topic. If nobody thought a National street tire class was viable, it never would have been offered. Or, if it had been offered, 15 people would

Please do. It seems as though most of the Street Tire guys keep pretty quiet, while all the R-tire guys campaign that we don't need our own class just because they don't want to run in it. Way to go,
