We are currently at Bowling Green.

Lost a trailer tire on the way here. I replaced them all on the way home from here two years ago.

Spent the day trying to get Camping World to stand behind their sale of less than two years.

They said they would be happy to make an appointment for me on July 5th. If the tires meet their view of a tire that should be covered by the warranty they would then order one in. They say they stock no tires and it takes a week an a half to get a tire in.

I purchased these tires because I really had no choice at the time. Turns out they have a pretty impressive warranty "Sutong China Tire Resources, Inc. (SCTR) hereby warrants that every new tire purchased under this limited warranty from an authorized dealer of SCTR is free from defects in workmanship and material for the life of the original tread, down to 2/32”, at which point the tire is considered to be legally worn out."

So...today I purchased one tire to replace the one that is shredded, and put it back on the trailer,

I have two mounted spares which should get me home.

One of the members inNDRL (the series I race in) has a truck repair shop. I have purchased four new Carlisle tires from him which he will bring to the track on Saturday. That means I will have two mounted spares, one new tire on the ground and three on the ground less than two years old, and four new Carlisle tires in the trailer.

I should be ok for the trip home.
