we would love to have you come out to run with us some time jeremy. to be very truthful, i do not know how the techs measure the width. i will have to ask one of them and get back to you.
while these rules seem 'strange' they have worked very well. however after Drew and 'Sleepless Nights' diesel ripped through the class a couple of years back, there was a major effort on the part of the gas truck members to try to lessen the effect of the dual wheels. that is where these tire rules came from. rules are made by the members and not by Full Pull, although our techs are involved in the process.
my ONLY edict in the rule making (and i try to stay out of it completely) is that the diesels must be kept viable in the class. should we lose the diesels the class will lose some of the glamour.
i noticed that Joe Gambino from New York = "Brother's Diesel = has duals this season. that is the former Big Bad Dodge from California. but that was in Pro Stock and not RWYB.
