From ASCOC

Camargo, IL (3-22-10) :

1. Right Rear Tire:

One right rear Goodyear 100, 200, or 300 tire per night shall be used for
Qualifying, Heat Race, and A-main. The right rear tire will be marked by an
All Star Official when the car crosses the scales after qualifying and
compound will be noted. If you get a flat right rear tire during the racing
program, you are required to replace it with a tire of the same compound.
Any flat right rear tire must be checked by an All Star Official and the
tire may be confiscated. Teams must notify an All Star Official of a flat
right rear tire. You can use a different right rear tire for the C-main,
B-main & Dash, but then must use the marked right rear tire for the A-main.
If you get a flat right rear tire during Qualifying after one complete lap,
you cannot start better than 7th in the heat race. Anyone that changes a
right rear tire at anytime due to damage during the night cannot start
better than 11th in the A Main.

2. Left Rear Tire:

As for the left rear tire, it must be a Goodyear 100, 200, or 300.

3. Tire Softening:

Softening of any tire compounds by soaking in a chemical bath or by any
other means is strictly prohibited.

Sounds good to me if they can police number 3...

This makes way too much sense for any midget club to understand. Outside of the new midget series in Indiana, when did you ever hear of a mainline midget org even thinking about cutting costs. Plus, it would cut into the precious profits of the monoply tire company (ies).

They do on the coasts (ARDC & BCRA)...no one in the midwest cares I guess...really upsets me to watch this slow painful death...

I know sniffers are not effective on the outside of a tire but what about breaking it down and using it on the inside of a tire i.e. tech?

A simple durometer test sloves the soaking issue...

Wrong.....there are some preps that add bite but do not effect the duro....I race karts....trust me there is no way to police it....the WKA tried and there are undetectable preps out there even if you send them off to the lab like they have been doing in LM's:15:

Now I read in the latest SC@M, in another excellent Dave A. interview, Kevin Miller says USAC sprints will be on one set of tires per event - on pavement. A good start I'd say. Still awaiting the RPM rules...
