Geoff runs very well on budget much less then most of the front runners. The two tire rule would bring several of the "have not's" back into contention. I didn't read all the details of the rules that MSA uses, but I was told that the LF is not included. In other words, you can put on as many LF's as you want. And just to let all of you know, I buy a new left front at the start of the season and run it all year. Then the year's before tire goes on the trailer for a spare.

Somewhere between street tires that cost $100 each and last 40K miles and a racing tire that cost $200 and lasts all the way through hot laps is a happy medium that could/would bring up the car counts. I remember the Rockford Rules for late models that required high dollar short track late models to run on DOT G60s. I heard lots of complaints about those rules, but I don't remember anyone sitting at home because of them.
I think from what you guys that are actually running are saying that the two tire rule is at least in the range of what should be looked at.
