[top row]

Looks like headed towards one tire after 7/1/16 . Unless you use an H on RR

Same as last year. Except no d's for Florida.

Same as last year...? They're taking the A tire out after July.

Typical UMP .... Help Hoosier make more $$$......... get rid of one of the harder tires and make the A40S a tire and a H tire after everyone has A's .... and then in other classes let them run everything.... UMP NEEDS TO GO TO THE MOON AND NOT COME BACK!!

This will cause an issue in the area where I race. The "a's" tire has been banned around my area due to horrible wear issues. I myself think The rule will change. And we will be back to the to the same rules.

Same problem they had last year..... UMP CANT EVER STAY WITH A RULE..... HOOSIER CAN MAKE MORE MONEY with the A40S

slowly but surely this is one of the things that is making me lose interest in racing...money racket from the word go trying to figure out a way to stick to the drivers...you'd think as much as the price of a tire has went up over the last five years, the product would be better..

The power is in your hands to get things changed. 1. Don't buy a UMP license 2. Don't take your car to the tracks that supports these rules. The problem is it need to be a unified effort which I'm not sure people have it in them to do it.

sad, AMRA looking better every minute, time to show at track and tell promoters you want a change and you will NOT buy a UMP card

needs to happen, the tire rules make no sense. sounds good for Hoosier and UMP time to let promoters know, by telling them flat out that you will not by a license from ump. promoters want cars they will have to cave.

I'm just wondering if more drivers are ok with the way things are going then are not. You don't really get a good read on here as to how many lean one way or another or if some just don't want to up set the apple kart and will put of with it.

It would interesting to actually find out the number.

You will never get a good read on this forum again, because of a few certain people!

My guess is that you will see just as many cars as last year at ump tracks. I may not agree with some stuff but I will race anyway since the local tracks are ump and I want to race.

Your probably right, that's what I'm thinking guys want to race so bad they are not willing to try and make a change or don't even want things changed.

At least this new rule eliminates one compound, so I only have to keep A-s and H in the trailer. That is better than having 3 compounds in the trailer, so that is a savings. The A-s is a good tire IMO. Way better than an "A" I havent chunked one like a "A" and it always refires, unlike an "A" so if I had to get rid of one it would be an "A". I guess I'm in the minority or only the people who arent happy post on here.
