I use to race a few years back and was wondering why everyone switched from using the turf tammer and riken type tire setup? That's what everyone was running. Is it because ITP sponsors the nationals?

I've wondered the same thing. Thats all you used to see up until about 5 or so years ago.

How many options were available when you were racing? The ATV racing scene has exploded in the last 5-6 years;)

There are just much better tires out now, though on a hard pack track, I still prefer my grooved riken front tires. I really only use them on one track in my area though, almost useless to even keep them around.
