Tire Game are you sick of it ?

[XXX#40]

You know if dirt oval racers would stop racing slick tires on dirt, and run treaded tires, you would fix all your tire issues

lol no, as Brian said they get the same treatment as slicks, probably more needling them

Exactly! As I have posted before in other threads my favorite track is a dirt track, NOT CLAY! Track is usually very wet. All that is needed tire wise is one good set of 11's. While this track likes new tires they aren't necessary. I am running the same set for the 3rd year in a row now. Consistently make the podium on these "old tires."

I have seen this too with just back yard tracks. Here in southern Maryland we run a backyard circuit of about 5 tracks. For the clay tracks I prep...nothing crazy just about a days worth of work and then keep them wrapped. On my personal track though its a really sandy mix of dirt. We water it like crazy to keep it tacky, but tire preps just don't matter on this track. Its all driver and time in kart.
