They're about 3.5 years old. Understand the intent of the rule, but regarding safety with a 46 year old car tires are the last of my worries. My rear drums qualify and I'm more concerned about losing brakes on the road course than having a tire issue.

Tough justify $500 for the entry and $1300 for tires just to run an OK track. I'd spend it on track days and expenses at Oregon Raceway Park, The Ridge, or T-hill first.

I don't agree with being able to circumvent the 'safety' regulation by using a lower quality date code conforming tire.
