<div>I was not going to weigh in on this, but, I couldn't help myself...</div>

<div>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?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>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.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>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?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>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 </div>
<div>Friends of Triumph? Of course we will.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">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. </div>
