As for meatballs. As a nov. I wasnt acclimated w pit in procedures. And I think its a superfluous danger coming n and goin out. A suggestion is a 5 sec penalty is appropo and much safer.

Suggest being able to run Rain Tires in Production.
Current: Section 2.10.N: Tires must be DOT rated tires only. The DOT rated tires can be grooved at the racer’s discretion.
Proposed: Section 2.10.N: Tires must be DOT rated (no slicks). Rain tires will be allowed in the event a race is declared a wet race.
Rational: 1. Race DOT's do not work in the rain and/or when cold. Period. 2. Why not be able to run a decent tire that is built for the conditions? 3. I realize its intent it is to make racing cheaper but a used set of rains shouldn't break the bank. 4. Production Class, while fun on their own, are also a learning class where experience is gained that can be applied to bigger bikes later. By limiting a proper tire, you take away from that experience. 5. Racing in the rain (on rain tires) was a lot of fun and confidence inspiring on what you can get away with on them. DOT's and Street tires will not provide the same experience.
