I have heard these arguments already with the STS tires.  I probably do not
have the solution.  That was just how I see making them less of an advange.
Spec tire would be the only way I see or you have an approved tire list in
stead of the exclusion list.  That would probably be allot of work.
Honestly I like the sticky tires, but do not like the cost.  Shocks, well I
say we leave it how it is.  Even if you take the adjustments away you just
going to widen the gap of people who are fast because that have someone how
will get the shock valving right the first time or allot quicker.  To
someone comment of taking the car apart and putting it together in the way
that will work the best.  I personally think this has been happening for a
long time in Solo.  Shocks and all its just more and more people are doing
it now.  Racing is expensive, just be glad we are not road racing.  We will
never make everybody happy anyways.
