Thoughts on the new 200 treadwear rule?

[See23]

Does it/grip matter?

Physics - says yes.
People - can't agree.
Cars - love a brand new set O sticky shoes.
PAX - f@%# up everything!

Oh and Brain just sits back and laughs.

Buncha rookies.........doesn't anyone ever read the rules

December 21, 2014
Bulletin 2015-01
200 Tire-Wear Requirement
Application: ASN Canada FIA National AutoSlalom
Regulations, Appendix E, 13.3.A1
Effective Date: January 1. 2015
Bulletin:
In Street and Street Touring classes, 13.3.A1 of the Class
Preparation Rules indicates a 200 tread-wear limit for tires
to be eligible for competition effective January 1, 2015. This
requirement is delayed to January 1, 2016.
Rationale:
The NSC, in consideration of the number of competitors who
presently have 140 tire-wear tires and a request from our
CAC presenting sponsor, Toyo Tires, have delayed the date
for implementation for the new requirement as outlined in
13.3.A1 of the class preparation rules.

Chair, ASN Canada FIA National SoloSport Committee

Are sure your name isn't "Burrows". Does autocross have a role for an "agitator"?

I just wrote and then deleted an "agitator" post.

Here's the alternative for interest sake:

I've been following that thread for the last 6 months. It's pretty much the same argument that is on every autocross forum.....including this one. Care to explain what the "alternative" is?

P.S. I'll be running my perfectly legal 140TW Toyos next weekend at the UBC event

"alternative" to the post I deleted. (It was dumb and that's all you need to know)

Hope I can get in on that event! Still waiting..

I support going one more year to allow burn up of existing tires.
Mine are 200 so it doesn't matter to me.
