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

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

Yep, Hankook will be back in 2010......details should be released in January.
Good to hear. Do they have new forms available or do we just use the 2009 forms?Quote:

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.Quote:

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.Quote:
