8" tires out there. What size tires do you think are on half the trucks that were out there? We also asked them to run the stocks and mod heats first. They ran the stocks but Eldora would not run the mods before the sprint cars. The only thing that USAC may have come close to doing as far as "dictating" was to cancel qualifying and have us hot lap twice to try and help the track.

Jerry, just a heads up... Stock Cars are AWFUL for wheel packing. They are too heavy on too narrow of a tire. They pack the track too tightly and easily create a rough track. Just food for thought.
