Maybe I am wrong, but this makes a lot more sense than allowing folks to bring their own tires!
EDIT: I am not disagreeing that communication has been horrible for this event, but I think a lot is getting lost via really poorly worded facebook and rctech posts. The facebook post about ordering tires through Superior was absolutely absurd.
At the pre worlds we had teams bring in there own sets for practice and during practice sessions they used there own sets not what was purchased trackside which equalled close to 500 sets that were purchased elsewhere.
So were trying to avoid that issue insuring everyone is running on the same batch.
This weekend we will work with all the teams to place the practice session order for the worlds to avoid any shortages
