Thanks, Sandy. I missed that somewhere.

Good for Justin. I hope it all works out.

That is what BMARA did when they ran Milwaukee in the early 00s I'm pretty sure (never went...wished I did!)...

But ya, I say USED dirt tires.

ANYTHING cheaper than what the current tire package is...last I knew you had to run the same RR all night, but there needs to be more than that to help level the playing field...(change the LR or RF you start in the back? Might help passing...)

Re: Fort Wayne Saturday
 

Ill go ever further and suggest using those skinny rock hard DOT tires the IRS midgets used to run

How dare you suggest that Zack, thought you knew those ain't real race tires.
Even have heard them referred as being dangerous 🙄

I have both the Mickey Thompson & American Racer versions 4 sale if anyone is interested...

Changing tires would be the dumbest thing to happen. You could pretty much kiss the rumble goodbye if that were to happen.

Every time we ran TQ's there, we ran dirt tires, no problem, saved their butt one time when a well known oiled the track good in a midget, we ran and ran, and ran some more, and it finally started taking rubber, they used all the regular stuff to try and get it to take, but the dirt tires is what did the trick, plus there were more that showed up, because they already had tires.

The 330 and 360 Kart features were the best races of the weekend, hard, clean, side by side racing. I also thought they should leave the tires in for the features. The bottom was tricky Friday night, bit Smoke, Peck, and a few others. Overall I greatly enjoy this race and plan on attending next year.

My car and Cap Henry’s car ran the same RF and LR all weekend. Only chanced the RR for Saturday’s event. Races have been won there on older tires. There it nothing wrong with the tire package we run up there. Ever since they added a second 600 class(which runs a wide dirt tire) the rubber hasn’t been as thick on the track. Running Dirt tires on the 600s is the main reason there hasn’t been a lot of rubber down the last few years.

How much are they though? Last I recall the RR was like $160
