Now in its second season as the Official Tire of AMA Pro Flat
Track, Dunlop introduces the all-new DT3 flat-track tire available for
professional and amateur racers alike. The Dunlop DT3 replaces the Goodyear
Eagle DT II flat track tire.
In 2014, Dunlop began transferring production of the Goodyear flat track
products from Akron, OH to Dunlop’s manufacturing plant in Buffalo, NY. The
tire was renamed along the way, and offers the same performance levels as
the Goodyear tire. Testing throughout the 2014 season by top AMA Pro riders
such as Jake Johnson, Brad Baker, JD Beach, Bryan Smith, Hayden Gillim and
Kenny Coolbeth proved the performance of the DT3.
To support the new DT3, Dunlop will provide sales and technical support at
all the 2015 AMA Pro Flat Track nationals, saving riders the hassle and
expense of hauling their own tires throughout the year. Dunlop engineering
staff will also attend select races during the 2015 season.
“Dunlop believes in motorcycle racing, and we support the sport whenever
and wherever we can,” said Mike Buckley, Dunlop Vice President of Sales,
Marketing, Research and Development. “We are excited to bring this tire to
market, and to provide trackside sales and service to the AMA Pro Flat
Track paddock.”
The Dunlop DT3 is available immediately from Race Tire Services,

transition from the Goodyear Eagle DT II to the Dunlop DT3 in the early
part of the season.
