Glad to see the cheaper AR tires are being used somewhere! My track (KC Raceway in Ohio) just went to Goodyear RR & LR next year, which I believe are going to be the same price as the Hoosier SC tires that we mostly ran. I was starting to run more of the AR's because of the price difference though. I easily won a 25 lap race last year on a very fast & sticky Ohio Valley Speedway (Parkersburg, WV) with a new MC-1 for the feature (**** still on it afterwords). Saved that tire and came back the next race there a month later and put it on and would have won again except lost the brakes and jumped cushion a few times and got passed on 23rd lap. Tire still looked good. MC-2's used to work good @ KC when we had to run them a few years ago and would have ran them again. With Goodyear taking over, what does AR do- sue Goodyear too? They're in a tough spot for sure.
