Might I ask ..How many Stocker teams can afford new 9" tires every race? New set for the final round?

There never was and never will be an inexpensive heads up class,that said keep the rules as they stand especially 9" tires.

I thought my statement was fairly straightforward.
Do the FS/XX cars now use wheels /tires not legal for Stock eliminator?

[Mike Gray]

If they run in stock eliminator they should be on 9" tires any other class just use the tires that fit the rules. Why should they get an advantage over any other fast car in stock?

Maybe because they don't run against any other cars in stock they have there own class or because with 1400hp on a 9 inch tire half the time they smoke the tires and put on a lousy show. Or it is just not that safe running 170-180 mph in 7.something seconds on that size tire there have already been to many crashes in that class. There are a lot of reasons to keep the 9 inch tire but there are also many reasons to go bigger I think safety should be a concern.

When Stock quotas drop to 40 it will take 10 grade points. We all soon will be millionaired out.
