Just curious if any of the Colorado tracks are going to stick with duro tires for club racing? I am bummed that GJMS has switched to mg reds for their club racing, I was planning to make the trek over the mountains to race with them as I have family over there. Looks like the Lo206 class is moving away from the “economical” aspect that it started with here in Colorado. I do appreciate that cjkc has stuck with the duros.
Guess you can’t make everyone happy. 🙂

How much did you spend on tires last year? Did you run the full season? Have you raced other tires like the MG reds? By what I have been told they last a while. Last year at The Track I went through two sets of fronts and 1 set of rears. There are less races with the MG series. Which means less runs on those tires. I have also seen on here that there might be tire scholarships and what not.
Though, I will be running as many races as I can. Planning on running in cjkc and MG series. Just trying to determine what class everyone is going in as I just want to race with the fast guys 😉 I remember you are one of those fast guys! Would love to see you out for all the races if you can make it out. Loved the battles we had!
I used one set of tires last year and I made half the races and the tires barely have any wear on them. I plan to use the rest of the rubber up this year. I had contemplated running the mg series but there are 8 race days which makes it similar to the cjkc, no? Two sets (conservative estimate) of mgs puts me at $450 just in tires and I’m not fast enough to be getting sponsored… I guess what I’m getting at is I’ll be racing a few races with cjkc in the lite class and just try to enjoy myself while I’m at it 🙂 I better get working on losing a few pounds!
