    Didn't mean you honey. Nor me. That's nothing you fuk with. I run heavy equipment, so I kinda know what Bubstr is talking about. But no matter what it is, you need to respect the danger that is there. You make ONE guy do that job, and that is his job till it is done. You don't try and do ten things, you take care of the tires, then you move on.

    I was actually referring to if it was Moyer, Pierce, Sheppard, whoever, would they still crack stupid wise a$$ remarks.

    I saw the same thing. A split rim came apart and took the side of a guys head right off. Very, very ugly scene. Anybody making lite of that situation, your pretty screwed up and should go look at yourself in a mirror...

    Why must some bring such realization to a topic bubstr? Danger is everywhere and like how you told it. Racing one thing but honestly think when you bring in service it reaches another level and it very well should!! Couldn't nor wanna ever see that (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)!

    They were no doubt using a clip on air chuck. Takes a while to put 50 pounds in a tire to grow it so bending over to do it is a pain. Once it on one person distracts you and you forget and boom. I never liked using it cause so easy to forget. Safer to just hold it on there

    It's a wonder tires have not killed more racers.
    Years ago if I needed 1 1/2 or 2 inches in staggers on a dirt tire I have put 70-80 pounds of air in a tire,water it down and put it in the hot summer sun and you could get 2 to 3 more inches of stagger.
    In the early 80's you had to mount pavement tire's you hand to blow the tire to the bead with starter fluid.
    I've been very lucky
    Glad no one was hurt.

    Yes, definitely if it was Bobby. There are some on here that would be cute about it. No humor in this kinda thing. Unless you're a dumba$$.

    I use to drive this old 1970 ford 350 with a small ladder crane when i was a kid .... Single axle - needed dual wheels on it .... It was a comon thing to hear a bang & see the split ring passing you going down the exspress way .... What a pos that truck was .... I never did understand the spit ring thing but I knew to stand to the side of the tire guy when he hooked up the hose to it .....

    He would have been really pissed if that would have been his new truck. If there is indeed a new truck coming. Somebody months ago said it was being built in Texas, and that's all the info we have? Mo' Weak Leaks please!

    My grandfather had a recapping tire biz when I was just a squirt and was teaching me how to break down truck rims when I was seven. One of his employees blew a split rim up, it hit the ceiling probably 18 feet up and darned near killed his Doberman guard dog. I hated that dog but still... A young guy mounting a sprint car tire at our Friday night track got killed a few years ago when it blew up, probably over inflated. After some 60 years mounting our race tires it still makes me nervous and I NEVER over inflate them. Tires are nothing to screw around with. Period.
