      in all fairness: When XR had the staurt and belleville races they added a American racers tire (pro 3 or something like that was comparable to the LM40 RR), we called around to see if any of those was available (even called Ray Cook) and nobody had any and didn't know when they would.

      Also a while back there was a press release from AM that they was shutting down the/a plant due to lack of nylon. No idea how that effected their LM tires, but you would think it would (maybe they have more then one plant as I don't know).

      However I can tell you at I-80 I saw multiple people (including non big names) that got 5 or more tires at a time. That's one trip to the tire truck but can't say they only went once or multiple times or if there was even a limit on tires. Most every race I been too in the midwest has had a tire limit you could get per day, most being 2 (1 RR and 1 LR/Front).

      If your on a Hoosier deal or a big name racer you can get tires, maybe not as many as you ordered but you will get tires shipped to you before a race and the small local racers get what they are allowed at the track the day of the race

      ^a generalization^

        I stand by my claim. Not saying that tires aren't an issue by any means.

          I'm sure this will get someone's panties in a bunch because I'm just a dumb fan that doesn't understand anything. Im just asking a simple question.
          Yes they have a tire rule - https://www.floseries.com/rules/ click on 2022 tire rule

              You know that my regional series ALLOWS AMERICAN RACERS right? And the Flo Series allows them at most events. So YES I check the availability of those tires weekly. You also know that Ray Cook who owns American Racer South is the tech official for the Flo Series right?

              SMDH. Keep my (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) name out of your mouth if you don't know what the (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) you are talking about.
