I was not going to weigh in on this, but, I couldn't help myself...
=20
Speaking strictly as a maintainer of a very fast TR (thanks Glen and =
Jeff), my limited on track experience long behind me, what is the =
problem with a defacto "spec" tire?
=20
The Speedster is a very good tire, we have never had them "fall off" in =
a session. The things just work, and are far better than the old =
Vintage TDs could ever hope to be. Sure they take some driving style =
adjustments, but any change you make to the car will cause you to adjust =
to that change.
=20
Now that I am on my soapbox, I will say that, quite frankly, we are not =
racing for money, a National Championship, or for cash from a long dead =
manufacturer. We do this for fun, because we love it. Yes?
=20
If everyone is on the same tire, so what? It's still racing, there =
will still be one of you guys on the top of the podium, and everyone =
else trying to figure out how to get there, just like it is now. And at =
the end of the day will we not still be=20
Friends of Triumph? Of course we will.

My two pence.

I run the Speedster exclusively, anyhow, so limiting the 15/60 tire =
selection to this tire is fine with me. It could make me more =
competitive, which is also fine with me.=20
