I think they are fighting public perception. Not the actual quality of the tire test. This test is pretty easy to administer. The problem I have is the lack of visibility into what was found that didn't belong.

Besides testing your latest Gizmo from your benefactors at Penske or Port City, guys need to practice passing the polygraph now.Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing

I have a view on this subject to and here it is , when someone is using prep on the tires and the others aren't ,well when the other cars that are not using it and they go out to qualify or heat races and you run behind this guy or in his tracks and your tires will pick up the tire prep and even if you weren't using it , it will still be on your tires and so when they come for a tire and they do their tests and bang you are a cheater , so you can't really believe their tests

Those tires would have to be dripping like a soaked sponge. No way.Originally posted by rageman View PostI have a view on this subject to and here it is , when someone is using prep on the tires and the others aren't ,well when the other cars that are not using it and they go out to qualify or heat races and you run behind this guy or in his tracks and your tires will pick up the tire prep and even if you weren't using it , it will still be on your tires and so when they come for a tire and they do their tests and bang you are a cheater , so you can't really believe their testsModern Day Spec Wedge Racing

You just need deniability. Have someone not on your team do the work.Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing

you would still have knowledge of it . one of the question could be do you have knowledge of anyone prepping your tires. as for cross contamination it's my understanding the the lab has built in tolerance to eliminate this chance. the problem is not it the transparency in the lab testing but the transparency in the manufacturing process of the tires. a hoosier 1350 from 2 years ago is nothing like a new 1350 today.

That's impossible. I'm guessing you've not been around much tire prep?Originally posted by rageman View PostI have a view on this subject to and here it is , when someone is using prep on the tires and the others aren't ,well when the other cars that are not using it and they go out to qualify or heat races and you run behind this guy or in his tracks and your tires will pick up the tire prep and even if you weren't using it , it will still be on your tires and so when they come for a tire and they do their tests and bang you are a cheater , so you can't really believe their tests

I'm guessing you've seen this at go karts tracks, or maybe even rc car tracks. I know on both of those worlds you'll see guys sit their karts or cars down with dripping wet tires, to where it'll leave streaks on the track when they drive away. You won't see that happen over here in the full scale cars.Originally posted by rageman View PostI have a view on this subject to and here it is , when someone is using prep on the tires and the others aren't ,well when the other cars that are not using it and they go out to qualify or heat races and you run behind this guy or in his tracks and your tires will pick up the tire prep and even if you weren't using it , it will still be on your tires and so when they come for a tire and they do their tests and bang you are a cheater , so you can't really believe their tests

think about it , they don't have to be dripping with prep , lets see when its hot and dry and they go around the track and lets see you see the rubber they lay down and you don't thing your tires wont pick that up ?? when your tire is spinning on the groove of rubber laid down by other cars and you run threw a guy that prepped his tires it is a known fact they pick up rubber that was laid down

Does it seem strange that someone has to prove his innocents, when innocents is given and guilt has to be proved, is the law of the land. Give the lie detector tests to the officials, rule makers, tire manufacturers and those doing the tests and delivery.
The first question should be, why is WD40 and Simple green, deadly contaminants, when you lube and clean the kids toys with them. Do they need banned from the supermarket also? If it's a health safety problem as stated, or not. If not could it be a tire manufacturer problem or series problem.

I'll call Tom Deery and tell him to just hire my wife to be the lie detector...I've never gotten away with anything with that woman.
Or just hire that Jeffersonville, IN cop named Denver Leveritt that shows up on Live PD on Friday and Saturday nights. They call him the human lie detector.Member of the Luxemburg Speedway Hall of Fame
