Round and Black.

Realy though, Tire testing will be done over the next three weeks or so. When all is final the selected tire will be announced. I have been working very hard to negotiate the best deal in order to make these tires available at a reduced cost.

It seems this year tire selection is poor with RP and CS gone. I know the Jaco is out but with the wheel problems I would really not want to run them. However Jaco is making a new wheel that sounds like it will be a great change. And would be available by the time the race is on.

I know Quinton will make the correct choice for the race, and the racer.

Actualy, the word from Jack (Jaco) is that they would not be able to meet the production demands in time for this race. At least that was the word I got.

Oh well, Im sure that when the new product does get released it will kick a$$!

Master's guy's are still resting... I know of a few here that are coming that still didn't sign up yet. I'm sure come late April, like the rest of the classes they will start filling up......

I am not really sure why we have a masters class at a national. But I guess we have to give the old guys a reason to wake up in the morning.

traction compound (i.e. Paragon) will be allowed for 1/12th scalers, right?
