I emailed Charles Van Huesden, hopefully he can confirm. If so, Kumho is a good option for Pro-Solo as my car can destroy 4 Hoosiers in 1 pro.

As of now, the bonus tire award Kumho is offering is only for the El Toro Pro Solo event. It won't be posted on the SCCA site.

Can one car run different tire brands for different drivers in the same class at a pro?

if you can change tires REALLY fast.. though I think contingency is checked in impound so it'd be whatever the second driver ran.

Different tires for co-drivers has been done before at a Pro. I'm sure arrangements could be made with impound to verify tires vs. driver. If someone approached me as Tour Impound chief in SD this weekend, I'd be willing to accommodate. Though that would be a LOT of tire changes based upon the tour format!

I think the bigger challenge would be sticker changes, as most are not magnet friendly, specifically bumper requirements.

We are going to try to do this. Don't have enough Hoosiers for 24 runs
