Tires
As most of you will see we have posted the new suplimentary regs for the nationals and we have refined the tire specifications.
To clarrify that any Hoosier brand tire is not a street legal tire, it may have a DOT rating but also has "For Competition use only" molded on the tire.
It is wrong that merchants sell these as street legal tires.
There is also this warning taken from the Hoosier site.
WARNING
NOT FOR HIGHWAY USE: All Hoosier Racing Tires including DOT labeled Hoosier Racing Tires are designed for racing purposes only on specified racing surfaces and are not to be operated on public roadways. DOT labeled Hoosier Racing Tires meet Department Of Transportation requirements for marking and performance only and are NOT INTENDED FOR HIGHWAY USE. It is unsafe to operate any Hoosier Racing Tire including DOT tires on public roads. The prohibited use of Hoosier Racing Tires on public roadways may result in loss of traction, unexpected loss of vehicle control, or sudden loss of tire pressure, resulting in a vehicle crash and possible injury or death.
The use of these tires will see you classed as open class.
Phil

Oh Boy.
I am getting excited my one and only holiday i get each year looking forward to seeing you all again and just enjoying my self.
I should really do something to the cobra i guess some tyres with grip would be a good place to start.
maybe some more horse power could help.
Any way counting down the days.

I'd be happy with ONE h.p. at the moment....
Engine out with conrods still poking out of the sump....
I'll have to get my backside into gear if I'm going to have a car ready for the Nats.
That sweet looking LS7 just sitting there under the dust cover waiting for the other car to be built keeps calling out for someone to use it !!
Maybe I could sort of run it in while Warwick is building the other car ??!!
Just Joking.....or am I ?? |

Bloody Tires.
HI Mrs Flatchat,
Hmmm. decisions decisions ---on point 5, does that mean that "Hoosiers R6" can be used ???
I think the regs are quite clear that the use of "Competition only" tires in all classes will put you in open class. This will be the case if run the hoosier R6 as they are marked "For Competition use only".
There are tires available in 15inch like the Avon CR6ZZ Range.
http://www.stuckey.com.au/tyres_deta...TyreName=CR6ZZ
These tires are available in Australia.
Looking forward to your response.
Phil
