I notice after following the link to the USVTA/USGT rules that it doesn't mention the new tire rule for USGT.

And had the main raped up till last lap where he got stuck in a back marker which cleared the way for bill sydor to take the win . this kid(Matthew Lyons) + xray+ride tires = super fast car!

@Darkside,
I am familiar with the rules changes, but thanks for the update. I was just saying that the site didn't seem to have the updated rules, or maybe the link took us to an old spot.
Anyone done a side-by-side performance comparison between the X-pattern D compounds and the new tires?

Sydor and a 12 year old....nah you might have used the right word the first time...lol. I know what you meant to say it was just funny.

Glad to see him doing so well and glad to hear about the tires too!!!

I have no hard data, just observations: The X-Patterns seem to have just a bit more grip on a low-traction surface. When the traction comes up, the X-Patterns start chirping due to the tread (at least when it's still fairly deep), and the advantage then seems to go to the Rides.
