I hate to rain on parades of people but treatment of tires is rampant at many levels. Many many many guys you would never think do. It is one of those things that most the time goes unchecked or gets past, sponsors pressure drivers for wins, so drivers make the jump to do it in order to stay current.
Sad that it comes to it but a fact of our sport at almost any level, mods or late models.

I don't know if the guy is juicing his tires or not, but if it is the" simple green " excuse, why can't a guy use a little high pressure water and a blow gun to clean them up after grinding and siping. No off the wall chemicals there. One more question, why is it some guys shrink wrap their tires? They are going to get dirt and debris on them before they hit the track with them?

Wrap to keep the oils from the factory in them longer and keep that surface from vulcanizing more. That's what happens as they age/glaze etc. so you wrap them to cut down on the time they are exposed to the air and slowly vulcanizing.
High pressure water does work but will shove pebbles down into sipes at times, not end of the world. Tire guys make the claim that high pressure water embeds more small particles into the face of the tire.

If it makes a difference or we actually embed dust into the tire is another question but wrapping makes us feel better

Not talking about this specific race only Jeff...........don't read more into it than what's there.Originally posted by W2Racing09 View PostI don't think Mark Richards gets that perk either. Nobody does. Not Bloomquist, not Owens, not Davenport, not Richards, nobody. Its not some conspiracy to take down "the little guy". As Christman said -- it is bad for the sport for this type of stuff to happen, but even worse to let it go. I'm glad it was caught, it shows everyone from Davenport/Bloomquist/Richards all the way down the line to the local guy who runs a single race all year.. don't try to cheat.
Thanks,
Jeff.
To believe that the most loyal supporter of woo since its inception doesn't get a few preferential looks and nods here and there is absolutely ridiculous...........
And to be honest ,if I were he ...........I would expect a couple extra myself.
No different than Clemmens getting a questionable strike call to go his way, Richards is a legend in the sport and most times if everything else is even , he will get the nod.
Has absolutely zero with the milliken woo scenario........hate to see it for the local guys and am hoping if turns out more like the Autry /Carolina crown deal and the lab turns out to be incorrect.Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

And it's hard to beat confidence...........if you guys are confident it helps to wrap them then it probably is......even if it may not be.Originally posted by zeroracing View PostIf it makes a difference or we actually embed dust into the tire is another question but wrapping makes us feel better

I can getcha some KY for the chapped a$$. They can afford a Longhorn, they can afford tires. Is anyone legal, probably not, but don't cheat tires. You know dam well they check them.Originally posted by xray View PostPry had take offs from RichardsUp in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

The 32 guys put out a nice piece........there is a youngster winning in it now.Originally posted by ksmitty79 View Postshame shame shame!

I'm just struggling more with why even fool with it........guy has a billion laps around Fayetteville, deluxe equipment under him now, is a shoe anyway and has the whole Cinderella story potential.
I just can't make myself admit that they purposely cheated on this deal.........makes absolutely zero sense.
Everybody in the place ( except for the woo regulars) knew he had a shot to win or do well that night..........it's just a tough pill to swallow.Where is the move over flag when you need it?????
