RTS one, no need to explain the rest.
Pick up's Mark Calder has agreed to run the experimental American Racer Tires, whilst at present we are not intending to change supplier it is important
to have alternatives in the event of a difficulty with the current supply, we would advise everybody the American Racer Tire is experimental it could be
worse or it could be better, until they are raced proper we have no way of knowing there durability so please let the test be completed before anyone
voices an opinion.
2lt Hot Rods again we have a tire we will be testing during the course of the year for the same reason as set out in the Pick up's.
You may or may not be aware we are working on a 2 day event 27-28 June in conjunction with PRI which is the annual Festival of Speed, possible it would
work something like this: all PRI Rod formulas and all RTS formulas competing in 2 heats on the Saturday and on the Sunday heat and grand final in
conjunction with PRI's other banger formulas.
