With Danny Shields' recent articles about this and several postings touching on this subject along with high speeds being obtained by high performance stock cars (like SS), it is now high time to pro

With all due respect: 1+ 5. This is not so much an issue of liking DOT slicks as looking long term at advancing technology and how it affects insurance risks. A separate temporary street tire stock

Speed is what the insurance people are looking at. As the tire technology improves with better grip (chief example are the ST classes) the need for DOT slicks becomes unnecessary. I hope others on t

But the insurance companies can tell the SCCA to make it safer and what happens then?? One obvious way is to SLOW down the course by tightening it (I DO NOT want this). My proposal is to slow down ju

I am not saying to use the OEM tires - most of them are worthless. I am saying to use the same tires as being used in the Street Tire classes with great success and growing entries. I am told that th
