Thanks for directing me to the right place!

The Jefferson county fair link is still the rules from 2015. Go to the thread where we were talking about the summer derby and click the link on there.

[dtrif21]

We are allowed any tire this year 100% I already talked to them, and they better not change it now because mine are already mounted and on the car

[j17carter]

From what I've heard they have changed....just b nice if they would update there sites and one of the fair board members would post on here as well.....they wonder why nobody ever shows up. Word of mouth is great but it only travels so far
