The Bub website is back up so you can follow the link to download their rules. As I remember they're not real picky about tire specs. I think they say something like, appropriate tire. For SCTA you require a ZR rated tire. I don't know how fast you think you'll run but I wouldn't run anything lower than V and preferably ZR. Also, the ZR tires are actually going to be W rated.

Yes you should have at least a V speed rating on those tires.

Are you hoping to set a record or just have fun?  The current record holder was the first person who reponded to you Oly38 :)

The new record is 162.194, sporty based. We plan to put 5+ mph on that this year. That old top end had a lot of time on it... :cheers:
