TIRE RULES
The intent of these rules is to keep fair cost-effective competition across all divisions.
- Each team (Legends and Bandolero) will be allowed up to 6 brand new Hoosier tires with nubs. No used tires will be allowed (EIRI)
- Each tire will be marked by INEX officials. We will be marking race tires on Wednesday August 13th at Colorado National Speedway. ALL RACE TIRES MUST BE MARKED BEFORE THEY ARE USED ON TRACK
- NO PHYSICAL ALTERATIONS ARE ALLOWED TO TIRES. Any marked race tire found with physical alterations including during summer nationals will be confiscated and that team will be disqualified from the entire event and asked to leave.
- PHYSICAL ALTERATIONS are defined as: Anything that changes the outer surface of the tire other than the racing surface and/or inner surface as delivered from Hoosier. IN OTHER WORDS, NO BUFFING, CUTTING, CAMBERING, WIRE BRUSHING, SANDING, SOAKING, SCRAPING, SHRINKING, STRETCHING OR ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF!! DO NOT PLAY GAMES WITH TIRES YOU WILL LOSE!
- Marked tires must be used during all Summer Nationals practice and competition. No “practice” sets will be allowed to be used at any time during Summer Nationals.
- If a marked tire is damaged in on track events (and approved by INEX Tech officials) it can be replaced with a new (with nubs) Hoosier tire. The damaged tire must be given to INEX officials before a new one will be marked. Any tire damaged on purpose will not be replaced. There will be a tire machine on site to change tires
- It is the team's responsibility to make sure they have the proper tires on with proper marking. Teams cannot use other team’s tires on other cars, once a tire set is marked it is with that driver even if they must go to a backup car.
- TIRE IMPOUNDING PROCEDURE. When arriving at Colorado National Speedway all tires will have to be brought to tire impound on Wednesday or Thursday morning before practice. Tires will be released before practice. Release times will be posted on the daily schedules. Tires will not be allowed in trailers at any point in time any race tire found inside a race trailer will be confiscated. No tire tents will be allowed and tent for legends and bandolero teams will have only 1 side to they and will be open on the other three. And violation will result in confiscation of the tent. Teams will be allowed to cover their tires from the sun. The only place this will not be allowed is in the grid. Inex officials can change tire rules at any time in interest of competition. Any tire rule or impound questions can be referred to by John Kelly.
