Firestone also gave sets of tires as prizes in 1963 (at least) to all who set a record.....I got a set but have no idea where they are now. Who knows somebody at Firestone? Skip

Would something based on the "tweel" be more stable at speeds than something that depends on the air pressure to hold the tire onto the rim? ~Jon

If you were using a highway tire at a LSR meet, would you use a "Dry" tire, or an "All Season" tire. "Y" tires are rated at 186 MPH.

Dan Warner may be able to answer your question or you may have to call the SCTA and talk to someone on the car technical committee. How fast did you wan to go on your "Y" tires? JB
