NO to warmers because:

1. it's against the spirit / meaning of the series - keep it simple, keep down cost, keep the technical / equipment playing field as level as possible (I know this opens up a box of 620 / 675 arguments but we're talking tyres at the moment).

2. they're poinitless all the while we run standard road tyres.


My personal view is either leave the regs as they are or permit wets AND a more race oriented dry tyre (but still no warmers).

I've used warmers, slicks and all that crap - trust me the DD way is SO much easier; no extra wheels, generator etc., to cart arround. No last minute dash to the holding area incase the tyres get cold (and then getting excluded because you left it too long), no mad scramble to change wheels 10 mintes before the race 'cos it's spitting with rain.
