Not to steal Rusty's thunder but I have seen a prev photo he posted on FB. The new tire has the exact tread pattern and sidewall construction that Goodyear started out with in the early 70's known as Blue Streak Radial. Those familiar with BlueStreak recall it was Goodyears performance tire. Goodyear also branded the tire a Police Special when equipped as OEM equipment on police cars from about 1976 through to the mis 80's.
I raced on these tires in the 70's and they were my Road tire for 25,000 miles. I currently have an NOS set in 215-70-15 going on my 1978 Chev Nova 9C1 police car
Kelsey are doing the smart thing by taking a known Radial casing and doing a raised white letter and redline tire.
I am hoping that other sizes are released soon.
