from what I can tell, In order to claim Michelin contingency money, you have to be registered with Michelin. Does anyone know where I can go to register?
BIBMEN.COM
How do you register @ bibmen.com ??? There's no place to register on the website ???
hey whats up Pierre !!
Did you run on Michelins last year ??

Thanks Eric!!!
You know I don't see it there this year I would have sworn it was there though. Try emailing Dave or calling the local Michelin supplier for your area about getting set up with a Michelin credit/contigency card.

Xian that is not actually the right one. That is a weekend form there is a once a year form that needs to be filled out.
IIRC that one is not used for CCS, CCS uses one form that has all vendors' contingencies on it that Michelin accepts.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but can I fill out the form for both Pirelli and Michelin, or do I have to stick with the same tire on both bikes?
I never filled out any extra form above the CCS contingency sheet for tech...always got paid from Michelin...
Let me see if I can get some inside info...
This is info i need, I got a 4th so i qual for the contingency.
I didnt realize theres, a card, or extra claim form?

The card is how you'd pay Tom Mason or Mitch Stein. Michelin North America sends it to you once you get some Bib Bucks. I only filled out the regular CCS sheet last year.
I'll probably have some kind of a reply tomorow or so...
Oh btw, Super Dave, I thought the Michelins were great !!! Seemed like i was tearing up the pirellis real quick last year.
Either i set up my rear shock better, or the michelins held up a lot better, GTO and 4 sprints and they still felt like brand new !!!
Allthought i didnt feel like i was pushing the cornering at my best cause my rear suspension didnt feel like i got it right.

Same here for Stump. He ran the GTU plus six 10 lap sprints and the rear at least is still good. The front *might* be on it's way out. Very happy with the Michelins. Tom Mason took very good care of us.
All we did was claim Michelin on the CCS contingency form you hand in at tech. We got our card in the mail shortly after the last BHF in September.

Topeka was my first time on Michelins...
I was set on trying either Michelins or Pirellis.
After talking to the micheling guy for about 15 mins, I opted to try his tires out.
One note on him, he never once put down the other makes tires... I have seen Pirelli and Dunlops Peeps do this (not very professional)
Well last year I would burn up a 208 GP A in one GT race, at Topeka I ran two GTs and a Sprint... Tires looked like they had only been scuffed in!
I still plan on mounting Pirellis once this year, but so far Michelins are my Donut of choice! ;D

Except that I come up with an empty page for both CCS and FUSA contingency...
Anyone coming up with something?
Works for me, and looks familiar.
Thanks,

Dave even on my DSL line it takes 10 secs or so to load so if you are on dial up (I think I remember you saying that) figure a few mnutes
It's not that... It just stops...nothing more. All the other links work fine.
same with mine and i have dsl :(
Here is the skinny...
I did NOT fill out any special form (aside from the check box form for contgency, given to Tech)
I Did NOT get my sponsor form turned on time to CCS, so Michelin, or anyone else is not listed as a Sponsor for the Topeka race.
I did how ever have a the staypuff Michelin Man sticker on my bike ;D
And I DID get contingency for the Topeka races. Yay!! (poor racer can aford tires)
