Several thoughts on the subject:
1. I am not convinced that open tire rules don't raise the cost of racing. Have you ever seen the tires that the Late Model guys cary around? Tire A for a heavy track, Tire B for a dry slick track, Tire C for an average track. I can see the midget guys doing the same. Purple tire for this track, AR for that track. Now the tire bill has gone up.
2. Supply and demand drive the price of the tire. Not the sanction bodies.
3. Spec tires and cost control have a place in this sport. However, people do not want their options limited. The odds of USAC or Powri going to a spec tire are remote, and I am not sure that I want the national series to have spec tires. However, it makes great sense for all of the smaller regional seires. However, now the regional guys can no longer run with the national series.
4. Has anyone ever noticed that there are two types of people in Don Moore's world. People that agree with him, and the idiots that are off topic and can't read. How you can have a debate when you won't listen to anyone else's point of view?
