Has nayone heard if KUMHO is offering a contingency this Year:(

KUMHO was not part of the SCCA contingency program announcement, so it's anyone's guess at this time.

[rickyellow90]

Emailed Rudy C and he stated that it will be the same as 2009:happy204:

[cjb25hs]

Not to threadjack, but has anyone heard about hankook yet? I heard they were going to be coming back in 2010 with something.

[rickyellow90]

What did they offer last year? KUMHO cut theirs in half.:(

Hankook was out of the picture. If Kumho is the only player that will make my decision to run something else easier!

"11/5/2009 - Hankook Tire Announces 2010 Motorsports Sponsorships - Details of Hankook’s 2010 contingency rewards programs for SCCA and NASA members will be announced in January."

The BFG contingency is National-only. I'm planning on running some STU races this year, to qualify to run the I.T. car at the Road America SCCA Runoffs.

How is the availability, Phil? I'd hate to switch then not be able to get tires consistently.

Any thoughts about comparison with Hoosier?

No that will be me that will need the hook:eek: I figure if I can get into the mid 18's at Nelson this year I will be very happy:happy204: Then it will be time for a final drive change and to build a motor.

Chris - that little neon has some power down the straights! But take it from Rick and his famous quote from the beginning of this year "If a neon ever beat me, Id put my car in to the tire wall" LMAO! :D

What did they offer last year? KUMHO cut theirs in half.:(

Yeah, how does the Kumho contingency work? What do you get for a win, 2nd, 3rd?

[jay05]

1st=150
2nd=100
3rd=75

[ITA_honda]

1st=150
2nd=100
3rd=75

jay - you staying with the 710's this year? I heard you might be switching to Hoosier's. I was going to switch to Hoosier's but the determining factor was the continuing contingency from Kumho.

[jay05]

I have a basement full of kumhos and their contingency works at all our events. The only reason I would switch was to get the better gear ratio. Can't justify it.
