There are other brands of WGT spec as well! Same compound, different manufacturers.

NO.... not all tires hook up the same on different cars. my normal tire selection changed over the weekend and i
had to try 4 different selections till i found the right one.

We've begun VERY preliminary discussions with other clubs regarding a potential series and this may or may not affect rules for next season.

Personally I agree with Gerry in that a link car is set up very differently than a t-bar car and unless we're prepared to make the class completely spec we can't just pick one element like tires to mandate.

I would like to see the class expand.  If we stick a new set of rules to it, I guess it could work either way.  I'm not very good with politics.
