Southern states mostly homie . Most of our tracks in Mississippi and Alabama on dirt are maxxis pinks and blues

The first year of the pinks, 2010 i believe it was, said 8.00 instead of 9.00.

Look at the date code. That's got to be and OLD tire.

Yeah, those are OLD Pinks. The 9.00 came out I think in 12?

I have a few that I got when a guy gave me a bunch of Maxxis. Yeah theyre old.

I believe that’s before they stamped date codes lol

No, even Blues from 08 had date codes. We have 08-10 blues still.

8.00s are the old Pinks before they went to the 9.00s. They used to offer them in Blues also (which some UAS guys still highly covet because of their previous success on them.)
8.00s are probably 10 -15 years old at this point. I don't think you'll find too many people running them still.

You are right, but most of us racing UAS wanted the old high rubber blue HT3 Maxxis, high power frequently loves that extra rubber. i also ran the low rubber blues, and they still worked better for me than the pinks on UAS. On the contrary Firestones rarely worked.

That is correct. It was around 2013 or so that they had a close-out on thick blues...I remember giving $15 ea. for them from a guy that ran a Burris series here in the midwest. Today, I still have UAS guys asking me for those tires -- wish I could still get them AND the Hoosier 9.50 FKs!

I have an old set I keep prepped and on certain tracks that set can be faster than new tires on UAS. I wish they would still make them, but with all the tire cutting and so they came out with the low rubber ones and then pinks.
