This post is for all Northwest Spec Miata and Club Spec Miata owners. After talking with Ron Cortes about Toyo contingency this is what AIM Tire in Toyo came up with to help out the local Miata drivers. This is available to all SCCA as well as ICSCC Spec Miata classes that only allow a Toyo spec tire. Please correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Oregon region is allowing Hoosier as well as Toyo tires in their regional SM class this year and would not qualify per the contingency requirements. I don't know what Northwest region is doing as far as allowed tires so they may qualify if they spec Toyo tires "only". The only class that I know that qualifies for tire contingency is Club Spec Miata. I did talk to Ron about the R888 being allowed tire in Club Spec Miata and he said that was fine since it was also a Toyo tire.
It seems to be very well thought out and it's also nice that the winner does not take all. For example there is a drawing of the first three places to determine which place receives the "AIM Certificate".
Please let the people know that don't frequent the forum about this.
Jeff,
I've attached the proposed contingency program from TOYO. The contingency
is for the Northwest SCCA Regional 2012 races as well as the ICSCC (Conference) 2012 race events.
We can ONLY offer this contingency if the Spec Miata class continues to
use the TOYO RA1 or new generation TOYO RR tire as their ONLY tire.
i.e. Keeping it as a SPEC tire.
If you will note the program is designed to spread the wealth so that not matter where they
finish everyone has a chance of winning a bit of contingency.
This program is provided ONLY through A.I.M. and our specified associate dealers.
The contingency is paid by A.I.M. and NOT TOYO Tires!
A.I.M. will provide the certificates that must be returned to A.I.M. or an appointed
A.I.M. associate dealer. The contingency certificates are not valid at any other TOYO dealer.
Please pass this along to the ICSCC Board of Directors.
Let me know if you need any more info or assistance.
