1LapSRT Posted December 7, 2007 Posted December 7, 2007 Will this same contingency be available in 2008? Quote
National Staff Greg G. Posted December 8, 2007 Author National Staff Posted December 8, 2007 I believe that Hankook is still evaluating their contingency programs for '08. I was told that it will be at least as good (if not better) than in '07 for NASA. Quote

Bueller Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 I am still working on it. Greg is right, I plan to make it better for 2008. Jeff Koehler Motorsports Marketing Manager Hankook Tire America Sounds great. I am interested to know about these changes. Quote
ckdc Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 This will hopefully be my first year competing. This program will help me get that second set of tires and wheels for the track! If I have two sets of wheels and tires, and one set puts me into another class, can I choose to run differnet classes over a race weekend by alternating which wheels I use? Quote
1LapSRT Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 I am still working on it. Greg is right, I plan to make it better for 2008. Jeff Koehler Motorsports Marketing Manager Hankook Tire America Any updates? I have my first NASA event for 2008 next weekend and I plan on winning! Quote

boomn29 Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 Thanks guys for the 2008 opportunity! Quick question, does the # of starters include all TT'ers in the rungroup, or just those in your respective class? Quote
trackaddict Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Is this going away for 2009? Philstireservice posted in the SE thread that all Hankook contingencies need to be redeemed by the end of the year or they are worthless. Quote
Tirewarmer Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Yet another person looking for info for 2009 contingency. Have an event in 2 weeks and need to order tires ASAP. Basically, if Hankook has regional '09 TT contingency I'll buy them, if not I'll buy something else. Any other Tire companies that have contingency for '09? Quote

kbrew8991 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I assume they're renewing the stuff for TTers as well then? Quote
