I went the 200 lap distance and had no tire problems at all. If you have the proper camber settings and kept the air pressure over 40, no problems at all. Of course you don’t go all out early on in an endurance race. People who lacked the proper prep and then drove like wildmen paid the price in tire wear. ---

That stealth was SICK. 5 laps ahead of everyone. And when i mean everyone he was the only person on the lead lap. Blows a tire and comes back to only lose 3 of the 5 laps and still wins. what a finish!!! ---

i was told that he was not putting the dirt back down at all and that he was putting down 2" of fresh black top in the spring. this came straight from one of the drivers that i know. which alot of the guys who run malta now are not going back. ---

oh and jeff the tires are on the rims. i had them dropped of waiting to be taken off then yoiu said you wanted them back so they are still on the rims and they aren’t really that light maybe as light as the factory 7 spokes. you can grab them whenever you want as long as steve gives the ok and you have wheels/tires to replace them.
