I had the uncomfortable occasion last week of having to cast a vote for a 'binding' mandatory tire selection for a car class that would not affect me, and though I tried to abstain -on the basis firstly that it didn't, but also that I harbor deep religious convictions against racing "spec" cars made of metal- in the end I was forced into taking a position and casting a vote.

So my vote here is to assign my proxy to Enterprises.

But I decided to keep my mouth shut for a change. Dave Harriman "It looks crazy, I understand. But, we only live once and I am going to give it a good try." - Alex Zanardi

The grip level is way different. We just need a poll to discuss other uses for perfectly good, "old" rain tires. Like tire swings for very small, wide children.

No rain tires sounds like lots of fun. Heck - half the time we drive in the wet, it starts to rain while we're already on track so we end up on dries any way. Lee Hill SEDiv SRF 72

Yes, Lee, you can change your vote. At least, you are supposed to be able to.
Maybe we should have a contest to see who can come up with the most outrageous option.
