Plus, people drive differently and so different tyres will suit different drivers and setups..........

Never seen the point in a control tyre if they are freely available.....

I don't think the 2 row studs that people were using are readily available.

Maybe Some people feel cheated here by people running tyres which can't be bought anymore...!

Myself and most of the guys bought the tyres track side on the day from Peter. And , I just ordered some more online.

Ah didnt know they were available at the track. They certainly worked well though, cant be a coincidence most of the A final had them on I better get myself a set of them too, thanks.

Edit, I'm struggling to find them, any chance of a link?

sorry Danny mate that wasnt aimed at you lol

[Darren Boyle]

I am sure we still have some Green 2 rows left if anyone wants some (and blue ones too)

The part numbers were U6519N (2wd front slim - green) and U6524S (4wd front - green), they may not be on our website still but we still have some if anyone is stuck.......

haha I know man, I just genuinely want some. I'm searching everything possible but it does seem they don't make this tyre anymore.

If thats the case N7ELA is kinda justified being a bit upset. Im chilled about the whole thing, I just love racing.

It is ment to be any tyre that is commercially available though I think, some regions would certainly kick up a fuss about it.

I'd better not if it could cause a fuss. I think they are technically illegal at regionals after all :/ No one was to know though, I'd of had em on too if I had em

if you try giving moss models a call mate as i think he can get hold of them but he doesnt normally sell them so theyre not on his website

[Darren Boyle]

No front tyre at all should be ruled out at any BRCA meeting, even at nationals only the rear tyres are controlled, with "free choice" for the front of any car...

I'm not upset, I didn't even race. And I have 2 row greens.

[Mike Parker]

On a lighter note, I just want to drop by and give a huge thanks to all involved at Dynamix for putting together a cracking weekend. I'll be prepared for next year on the tyre front

Looking forwards to South Shields in a couple week time and hopefully I'll have a 2wd to go alongside my 4!

I'll have some for club racing please. Have to agree to disagree on this 1 though.

23.7 Wheels and tyres must conform as follows:-
No form of metal or plastic spike, tubes or anything similar will be attached to the tyres. Maximum diameter
allowed is 90mm front and rear. Only commercially available wheels and tyres may be used

23.11 At Sanctioned events two types of control tyre will be adopted for the driven axle on 2WD cars and
the rear axle of 4WD cars. The choice of tyres for the non-driven axle on 2WD cars and the front axle on
4WD cars will be free, subject to conforming to rule 23.7

Meeting was good though, I dont meen to put a damper on it, just want a fair crack at the rest of them.

it also helps when you damage the front wheel hex on the qualifiying before the final to change it so when you qualify 1st for the C final your front wheel doesnt fall off 2 laps into it lol, woulda shoulda but didnt

I was a bit upset on the day not having that tyre to be honest though. I spent a fortune on tyres for this series making sure I had every tyre possible within reason too

All good though now, I never read the rules before.
