That is outright crazy nutcase talk. I've mounted thousands of foam tires, and maybe one in 100 requires little or no truing.
And the "foam dust mess in the corner" is something you can't stop, if you're going to allow foams.

I have rubber and foam tyre sponsors, it makes no difference to me either way. I can get any tyre I want, in any hardness I want, any time I want, and I have both a home and portable truing machine. I don't care!
What I'm trying to support is the idea of NOT making it more expensive for the guys that don't have foams and already have suitable rubber tyres - along with repeatedly pointing out the Batley Club organizers have already made their decision regarding the 2011-12 season.
End of story!

BUT, you keep trying to twist the discussion around into something that's not rational, with inaccurate information, serves no point - and does nobody any good except for YOU because you want to run foams.

Contact Stephen Lawson (Batley club chairman) here via PM, stop rattling cages and let it go.
