I'll bet Hoosier's doing just fine selling Vintage TDs. I bought two sets
last year, and I bet many thousands of other vintage racers did too. When
everyone else stops the demand grows for the remaining company.

What happen when all the tire manufactures stop building the high profile?
Like Hoosier has already stop building there street tires.
The manufactures can't make any money from high profile.
Looks to me that you guys will have to get the them (HMSA, SVRA, VSCDA, HSR
and so on) to change the rules on tire size
