I was leaving the NHRA Nationals at Pomona this past Saturday and walked past the Goodyear trailer.. low and behold.. a new contender will be offered early next year for the DOT stickie tire crowd. This will be direct competition for AVON/Hoosier/Kumho. The reason it caught my eye: I thought it was a Hoosier sitting in the Goodyear tire trailer. The new name is Eagle RS. Not sure about compounds or anything like that, but Roger Kraus Racing says they will be in $160-$200 range for the 17's.
Should be fun.
