    Follow the money, Purple Mafia pays the series, they’d rather Fergy and all the rest buy more tires rather than use up existing supply.

    What I'm hearing from reliable sources is Fergy had an LSB D70 (like a Fastrak tire). Hoosier for some reason made a batch of those. Depending who you talk to it was an accident or on purpose regardless they were made. Same rubber as an LCB D70 but those LCB tires are the spec tires (UMP, Crate, etc.) They have the bulged sidewalls and have terrible side bite. The LSB tire has the good sidewall like an open tire.

    That would make more sense. Thanks for the info. So, he had a special 1-off Hoosier. I'm not surprised by that either.

    Tire rules are good thing when used properly and with common sense but unfortunately all mighty dollar takes over
