remmeber stones pays in stone money only. michelin and prelli is cold hard cash

[skiandclimb]

I think Pirelli is paying w/ vouchers this year, like B-stones. Besides- it all goes back to paying for new rubber in the long run, Tom!

Pirelli is hooked up with X-bux in 2010 so it is a lot like Michelin except lower purses for finishes than the Michelin. Did a little math from my finishes in the 2009 races and Bridgestone paid better towards tire money. Got an extra $150 for second place from Bridgestone in the region for each class-I don't know if the other manufacturers does that. If you win a regional championship Bridgestone pays $200. I did fairly well this season racing on Bridgestone purchasing 4 sets of tires for my Ducati 800, racing Ultralight and the occasional Gt lights-then getting $1300 in contingency.

It is nice though having the cash to spend on whatever beyond the tires. The Michelins are new to me or I am new to them for 2009. I was very impressed with the side grip on the V-front on the old dog 748 running Lw F40 and Thunderbike.

LMAO!  Damn you, Shaw....if you weren't all gimpy and whatnot I'd take offense to that.  Wait a second, I did do a season once on one pair of tires come to think of it!  Crap- am I that slow?  LOL

[skiandclimb]

Happy Birthday, by the way, Tom!

The Bridgestone contingency program is phenomenal.  As most of you know, Turn One Racing is now the official Bridgestone race tire vendor for the Midwest.  We'll be at every event with a full line of the tires whose technology trickles down straight from Moto GP.  Contingency winners hand their certificates directly to us in exchange for fresh rubber.  And as we all know, Fresher is Faster

Marshal what is the cost of a set w/ 190 rear?

[Sklossmonster]

Bridgestone 2009 pricing was $359 for the DOTs and $379 for the slicks in the 120/190 size.  The word is that prices are increasing for 2010 by about $5 a front and $10 a rear. 

So I would expect the DOTs to run $374 and the slicks to run $394, in the 120/190.

The 120/180 would be $364 for the DOTs and the slicks should be $389.

If you started running the Bridgestones, Joel, you'd could be cleaning up. KTM's got a nice payout schedule and I expect the Bridgestone contingency will be the best tire money available in 2010.

[Sklossmonster]

Those prices include trackside mounting and balancing at no extra charge, of course.

[Team Spalding]

What about the ASRA contingency?

[Team Spalding]

Nevermind. Talked to Joe.

More than the Michelins, not to mention all of the trophys you would have won on the good rubber. 

[Sklossmonster]

The "good rubber" that got their asses handed to them so bad in Moto GP their own teams were demanding Bridgestones in the middle of the season?  Oh yeah, that company 

The truth is every major manufacturer makes an excellent product at the top of their product line.  Michelin has chosen to re-introduce an old product line to be price competitive, and that's fine. Pirelli did it with the SC Pros, Dunlop had their AMA spec tire last year, etc... The fact remains that the rider and the machinery are what make the difference at the level of anyone reading this.
