				With permission from Trackbird, I am starting this thread to get feedback from you guys on a set of Tire Blankets that I've been developing.   I have completed my final prototype of the large size so I am just about to get ready to kick off production. But before I do so I want to know if people would actually be interested in buying them. The price for the production blankets will be $159.00 for a set of 4. More information, like sizes, insulation test results and pictures can be found in the survey on my website. Please take the time to review this information and then complete the short survey (Note, I am not savvy enough to actually make an online survey, so if you could email me your results at the address at the bottom of the survey I'd really appreciate it). MLS Motor Racing Tire Blanket Survey You can also post any and all questions in this thread because I am sure lots of people will have similar questions. Thank you all for your help!

				Howdy, I don't have tire covers (usually have a codriver), but I'd be interested in getting a set. However, I can't justify $160/set. Maybe $75 max. Under $50 would be better. Mark |
