..nrhs...what we have here is a failure to communicate....
..the ASSumptions are so sickening...assumptions made by many....
assuming you understand my or anyones mindset is freakin ridiculous.....
....many months ago...in planning what venues to attend....i knew tire issues
were evolving....i looked for confirmation from ama/fim/bub folks....
SPECIFIC CONFIRMATION REGARDING WHAT TIRES WOULD BE ALLOWED, GET IT, SO
AS NOT TO SPEND MONEY ON A VENUE TO SHOW UP FOR POTENTIAL ILLEGALITY
FOR DESIRED SPEEDS.....
Drew (scrutineer) very kindly deferred to ama/fim.......
to this date NO DIRECT FREAKIN confirmation has been given to my requests....
some may want to beat around the bush, i wanted to know, wHATfreakin tire, would be
allowed for the speeds i wanted to run, ie per BUB representative in my emails " if course we would not allow a low rated tire for high speeds".....
i related "is a tire such as zr rated for 186 considered low rated for speeds over 265 mph"...
THAT KIND OF SPECIFICITY is what i was after and have not received...in making plans...do ya get it nrhs..?.....
do ya see how a statement regarding ensuring that contacting the tire manufacturer to make sure the tire meets the speed requirement"....leaves it clearly plainly to see, that only currently lsr tires are rated for the speeds desired....
i applaud AMA for putting on a meet....but not for answering freakin simple point blank questions
AT LEAST SCTA HAS THE FORTITUDE TO SAY WHAT THEY CONDONE AND ALLOW..
I APPLAUD THAT......
and for you nrhs to assume that you know more than tire engineers and scta/ama with regard to
tire usage and failures is crazy.....you have no freakin idea the data collected by ama and scta
reps regarding zr dot spec vs race spec.....yer sittin back thinking you have it figured out...have ya
been on the salt this year....what speeds do ya have to base your experience on....
thank you for your interpretation regarding tires, its likely as useful as your spouting off about tail sections earlier this year...
and no nrhs, i dont dislike ya....or bak..
...
just grow tired of this bs regarding ama/bub being so praised in comparison to scta....and decision making..
IM freakin glad both do what they do to allow pursuit of dreams on salt....
disclaimer "ama folks have been very gracious in many other aspects of planning"
