Tyres - A simplified version .......

It would appear there are still drivers confused about the new tyre rules, so here is a simplified version of the rule for this season.

1. The wet weather tyres; Hakka, AT1, RB1, and Ultragrippa may be used on any axle at any meeting by all drivers.

2. Drivers who DO NOT intend to qualify for the Nationals and who don't go to the BAS rounds can still use exactly the same tyres they used last year.

3. Drivers who take part in the National Qualifying races MUST use Option A tyres (60 shore hardness) or Option B on the drive axle unless they are using the wet weather tyres as in number 1 above.

4. If you attend the Nationals or a BAS round you MUST comply with the rules stated above in number 3.

These rules are only in place for this year so make sure you use up all your old tyres!!

There will be more details on National Qualifying very soon. Watch this space!
