i think all most of the rules are fine at the moment, but having thought about it, i now believe having a control tyre as a great way forward to keep costs down - it negates the need for extra wheels and therefore cost and we should be able to get some kind of deal with a tyre manufacturer with a bit of sponsorship.

if going forward after the first year the currect riders feel the inclusion of wets is a good idea it could then be changed.

A control tyre seems a great idea - as you say - then there'll be no need for spare wheels / wets etc - keeping costs down and minimising differences.

You could make it a Michelin macadam tyre. That way one set will last the whole year
