the issue with using 21.5...is that since VTA moved to 25.5....most of us totally did away with 21.5's in trade in or sold to a oval guy...if you still have them great...but everybody has a 17.5.....its nationally the largest on-road class, whether its boosted/turbo ect or stock spec...the idea would be to get ppl running things at the Scale Nationals without over spending for something they may never use again...
like I said, Ive got 21.5's...and dont care one way or another...but if having a 17.5 stock spec class with the sweet bodies will fill the door ,why not...
If Im telling ppl to come to this race....even if they are not a fan of VTA, but of cool AZZ bodies...and all I have to do to sale it to them is a body swap...that they may keep as a shelf queen anyway..and some tires...why not...
I like the rules that are in place....I would go with a spec tire, to eliminate the headache of having somebody ,..Boo boo on a $40 set of tires that dont work...I would hate to waste some money on a set of tires I wont need anymore after the race...or during it...
at least if its spec...we all will be using the same tires(like in VTA)...and no advantage goes to the guys that have $$$$ to do trail and error, to find the best tires....most of us dont mind spec...as long as you ,me, him and her all run the same...if its a good tire..great...if its crap...great...your crap is just as stinky as mine..lol..but you get the point.
set it up so we can fill the building and bring more national attention to the race of the year...for us VTA and USGT guys anyway...
thanks, and my name is Myron "BATTMAN" Kinnard..and I love VTA and USGT
