4 corner Hoosier tire rule vs Open Tire Rule

Boss while you can run any combo you want. does give a free RR to the racer that finishes highest of both brands that do run all four corners of that brand.

Not exactly free... If you go pick the tire up at the distributor in Indy, there is a 25 dollar shipping fee , 25 cent disposal fee, and 1.75 tax on the shipping. I gotta bill as proof.

We appreciated the tire certificate from BOSS and the other accolades that accompanied our win at Lawrenceburg. I sure didn`t want this to get misconceived as we were upset that the distributor invoked a surcharge for the tire. It was viewed as a cost of doing business by the distributor.

I live in Kokomo. I have not seen any of your work promoting the 23rd. I saw Spencer Racing help get a local Courtyard hotel to give discounts,but other than that I haven't seen any from you. I write a racing column and I would be glad to mention it.

If he's telling other guys at Paragon or that have sprints and fans To go do the BC race and the Bloomington Race. He's promoting., He also built his own car that is classic looking. He's promoting. He may never win anything big but he's bringing a car putting on a show and supporting tracks that allow him to race at what he can afford to do it for.

He's promoting, No different than Spencers. Well a little, Josh is promoting to get new fans, David is promoting to keep em

The main question I get when trying to get new people to the races is what time will it be over? I have never had one ask me about tire companies. The sport needs new, and younger fans. Every year the crowd gets older.

I spoke with several drivers last night at Paragon asking them to go to Kokomo on the 23rd. Me talking with other drivers to get them to go race is what I was talking about when I said promoting.

Also, everyone has to pay the same price for a right rear go hook the prices up the open tires cost MORE money not less. That's facts I normally don't post much on here because a lot of the stuff posted here is so far off base it's funny therefore if you would like to talk I'll be at the 17G pit at Smackdown.
