    In early 2014, when Goodyear started to pull out of club racing is when I noticed the change. If a race had less than 150 entrants Goodyear would not show. Our FM was about the last open wheel car...

    The problem getting a reliable Goodyear supplier is the Goodyear tire sales numbers are just not there.

    This is a photo of the tire vendor area for the SCCA Sebring races this past weekend. There were 300+ cars entered for the weekend.
