<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">Wow!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Looks like you needed a set of snow tires!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I remember well the Hoosier Dirt Stockers. Chuck Noonan set a track record in the rain at the old Bryar track using those! After that, everyone had to have them!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for the tip about looking beyond our traditional tire sources.</div>

<div class="yiv3865640528MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">I’m loving the Hoosier Spec Racer Ford rains and will be getting four of the fronts (185/60-13) for the GT6 racer (assuming the world is still turning
by the time I finish it). Those are 13”, but your Hoosier dealer should be able to tell you which tire is similar in 15”.
</span></div>

<div class="yiv3865640528MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">The hot tire at one time was the Hoosier Dirt Stockers, but I don’t think they’re the same anymore – or you can’t get them. Not sure you could ever get
those in 15”, but they were great in 13” on the Spit racer.</span></div>

<div class="yiv3865640528MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">PS, the Hoosier Spec Racer Ford tires also work well in the snow. See photo attached.
