Sorry adam, but there are only 2 places to get Hoosiers in southern ontario. The first is Matis Racing. The second is the place Mantis buys there tires from.
Since i now live only a few mins from that supplier maybe i can pick some up for you? Sound good? Or, it's only a hour and 10 mins from where you are to St. Kitts.
mantis ehh...
chris..where are you living now? your at university right?

Mantis is located in oakville or burlington. I see it every time i drive home as it's just off the highway.

Unless they moved Mantis is on Speers Rd. in Oakville.
QEW south on Dorval (about 1 km) , Right on Speers, Pass 4th line, first mall on your right. Look for the Tim Hortons.

Yeah, I drive too much. 6000km/month.
I've lived in Oakville for 20 or so years so I know the 'hood.
If you ever need to find a Tim Hoprtons in the GTA I'm good for that too.
As for Mantis near Appleby Line? I dunno. Maybe it's a peelers.

Yes there is a huge Mantis sign off the QEW but that's not Mantis Racing. That's some other company. Don't know what they do.
Mantis Racing is in a little strip mall off of Speers like Theo said.

Hoosiers are also available at Johnston & Magwood in Mississauga.
Adam, you sick bastard, don't make me go buy Hoosiers too! Damn you and all your Nissan money :P

I'm pondering Hoosiers for Solo 2. Anyone have a guesstimate how long they'll last on the Stook? I went through a set of Toyo's in almost ever Solo 2 event last year (20something) and two lapping days and 4 solo 1 events.
(hmm guess I couldn't drive to the track with them on eh?)
he he dave....all stops are coming off this year..no more toyo's...going right for the throat with the hoosiers...and big ones...big nasty stanky 225's and 255's on the rear..so i can unload that turbo power to the ground :)
the ante has been upped :)
anyone have the number of johnson and magwood?
