Sp2 are easy to find and I get most of mine used. Usually make 2-3 trips a year to Indy buy 20 at a time, take 3 for my self and sell the rest to racers to offset the cost. I bought 3 new tires this year and couldn't tell a difference....

My American Racers last around 12-15 races. I run a 33 compound. Usually has quite a bit of tread left but the durometer will climb to high from heat cycles to justify keeping them on there. I like the American Racer prices is the main deal.

Even through heat cycles they (Hoosiers) stay the same....40-41...after 10 races

Guys want room to "tinker" in racing, do things they think will give them an advantage. I think a predominately stock engine package, with room on injection, oil pan and system would do that. If they want a quick change let them have it...

Can I have my Echo tec?

Right now I am thinking that I might start working on an Esslinger.

Yup. Lol

25k engines, further solidifies the need for a economy open wheel class.
