Kudos to Jesse Woodyard in TAG Junior for leading the field to the checkered flag only to be removed for a wrong tire compound in post tech. Congratulations to Bucky Hewitt earning a 2nd place podium spot in TAG Junior.

New Tire Regulations for the Rotax MAX Challenge Series

Junior, Mini and Micro MAX To Run On D1 Tires Starting in 2013

The MAXSpeed Group is advising all MAX Challenge competitors of new tire regulations for the 2013 season. Effective January 1st, 2013, Junior MAX, Mini MAX and Micro MAX will all compete on the Mojo D1 tire.

This change in regulation effectively brings the U.S. market in-line with the worldwide MAX Challenge tire rules while addressing concerns over the progression of speed between the different classes. The four senior classes remain unaffected and will continue to race on the same tires they did in 2012.

For dealers that wish to prepare early for 2013, MAXSpeed is now fully stocked and shipping orders of all Mojo compounds from it's new Deerfield Beach, FL location.
