    I believe this came up before, but it's now lost in the 20 pages of other discussion about the event. What vendor(s) will be at the event to sell tires and mount/balance them. My primary concern is that there will be enough support to meet the demands. The Hoosier & Goodyear vendors at the ARRC are kept quite busy with their multiple tire mounting machines.

    Dave,

    Thanks for the info. on how busy the tire vendors tend to be. Goodyear and Hoosier are always a presence at our events. I will contact the local reps. to assure they are prepared for the demand.

    Yeah, if this is being billed as a large and important IT event like the ARRC, they'll need to be prepared for lots of tire changing especially with the amount of races that will happend that weekend. Thanks!

    Your request has been heard. How far in advance do you usually have to special order tires?
