I know when Bloomington first went to a spec RR Mike & Judy increased the sprint purse. That was a long time ago. I would think most tracks increased their purse too. Everyone just forgets.

I agree 100% run the same tire you qualify on and to check for prep no matter who it is check the first 3 and back through the field at random different positions every night so you never know if you will be checked or not

It was a long time ago but I think you are correct. Not sure if it was only 5 spots but I know it increased the start money.

Does anyone know if the sidewall construction of each tire is comparable?

Running 2 years with a wing car in Ohio and Pa. The only RR tire you could run was a MC3. And was cheap to buy. I can't remember any track that did not.

On a side note, didn't Foyt's last 500 win run on one set of tires for the entire race? |
