unfortunately Tire rules are not designed to save racers money, they are designed to create revenue for the tracks. When the midgets were running at 16th st speedway USAC mandated a spec right rear tire that was like 65 dollars if I remember right, might have been less. I only bought 3 right rears all year and probably could have ran all year on one maybe Two. the next year THE TRACK changed to a $135. tire that you could only get one night out of. I guess if they are going to have a tire rule then they need to build a storage building and keep everyones tires after a night of racing, and hand them back out the next week.
