People still run tubes?

I think I seen a actual tube that they used to install in tires at the Smithsonian once....



That is funny.
But putting tubes in my slicks was the best thing I ever did for my application.

I was killing the side wall on my slicks around the 100 pass mark. Then I added inner tubes, changed from 12" wide rims to 14", and this allowed increasing tire pressure to 11 psi. Now I get over 200 passes (225 on the last set) on the slicks.
