Yep, I'm pulling for Mark to win the 500. After that, 88 or 14. After that, any Chevy.
umm...
How long does it take to develope a tire?..??

Goodyear has years, and years of data, they have a FULL season of racing with the COT. The series Needs this tire. This car needs this tire...
PHASE in, in 2010...

No other series puts up with sub-par tires. Too bad there isn't another tire maker that could light a fire under them with some competition.

The tire situation has begun already...
Goodyear has recalled a series of tires (manufacturing series, that is) because they essentially are faulty.
Full article here:
http://msn.foxsports.com/nascar/story/9 … amp;ATT=MA
blistering, skinning and uneven wear...
Goodyear brought a softer compound to Daytona to improove grip. Lets think about that for a sec. Daytona...hot...oily...and Not fully rubbered in...
A soft compound tire wont last a fuel run under those conditions. See the 5, 39 and 88 (at least).
Who makes these decisions? and why do they still have a FUCKING JOB!!!
absolutely inexcusable imo...

I heard they've introduced right-hand turns this year.
Also I don't get the whole badge loyalty. All the cars are essentially the same thing right? A green box with a seat and some orange plastic trellis for a window.

My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.
NASCAR has had right hand turns for years ... road courses. I think this is the wrong thread for you unless you have genuine questions.
Brand loyalty is part of the fun of racing. Just like F1, ALMS, etc. the manufacturers compete against one another. And no, the cars are not essentially the same ... check out the technology packed into these cars by watching a race broadcast by FOX.

Ryan Newman has a tire failure in practice, losing control and collecting Tony who was behind him. Tony is none too pleased ...TC.Troy wrote:

I really do not understand why it is so hard for Goodyear to produce a quality tire for these cars. Downright ridiculous. Maybe Firestone or Hoosier would like to give it a crack ...

Newman said he was just about to come into the garage when the tire blew. I feel bad for him because he had a good car.phishman420 wrote:

We wont see these issues today with the NNS cars, they have a far higher downforce level. Still yet, the tire wont last a full fuel run...

It says the race starts at 2:00, so does that mean they will actually start driving at 3:30? Guess I'm going to have to punch out of work a wee bit early tomorrow (2 hours early that is)
