I wouldn't say it was of No use

ideally you need to decide on a make before you consider model
Say the majority wanted to race on Mezelers then they would need to be approached to see if they had a tyre suitable for the series that could be used both wet and dry, if they haven't then there is no point in getting in to deeper discussions with them.
Firstly you need to know which tyre manufacturers will support a single tyre option, in 2005 we found One such company after several were approacehed following a riders meeting held early that year.

If nobody wants to use say Continentals then wold there be much point in discussing the issue with them.
If the majority want to stay with Pirelli and they specify a tyre from there range that is suitable then why wouldn't we want to use it.
