I assume all TCS rules are valid for Sunday (and thus Saturday). We normally only allow the radial tire in mini at non tcs events...

The existing Tamiya TCS thread should be used for TCS rule clarifications.

NOTE: The B3 tire set (item 1015) comes with 5-spoke, gunmetal color wheels unique to the pre-mount set.The Type-A tire (item 1030) is mounted on a standard 0-offset dish white wheel with hard insert

M-Chassis classes must use the Spec 60D Pre-mounted tire sets available. Items: 1016 (Super Grip Radial w/foam insert-firm), 1028 (60D Type-A w/foam insert soft) and 1029 (60D Type-A w/foam insert hard) All tires are mounted on Suzuki Swift wheels.

I guess FJ, Al or John Brown need to verify the guidelines for this weekend . Sooner the better ,it's getting close to RACE time !!!
I thought that you could use kit tiers seeing how there was a short in the premounts?

Tampering with the pre-mounted tires is subject to disqualification from the event.

You may use the equivalent height hardware for the steering arm link mount on the M-Chassis. It does not have to be the brass ball stud for the regionals or finals.
These quotes were lifted from the TCS thread. The tire rules for the M chassis class on Sunday's TCS event is pretty straight forward. Someone should post about how strictly these rules will be followed on Saturday's warmup race. Man, I'm getting excited about heading up to Jackson!!

All Tamiya TCS tire have been in good supply ,so the current season tire rules are as written.

The only time you would run kit tires is in the Spec /novice class and in F-1 class when running the F104W kit .
