    Might have to be careful with the LR tire choice or risk getting the car to tight.
    Yeah. That tire won't go at all in the beginning. Unless the track is already rubbered up.

      Perfect. Now let's make everyone run the same shock packages and make them fit into body templates too. Hey, it worked for NASCAR. Look how good that racing is.

          People dont read the entire press releases or articles before jumping to conclusions and technically You can't chemically alter a tire in 10 mins.

            Exactly, but Jog seems to think it will still be possible and 10 minutes of doping is going to have an effect.

                Atleast there trying to do something, I'm going to keep an open mind an see what comes of it before i bash the idea all to hell. If it ends up being a bad idea I'll still give them props for trying.

                  Or the right front. I kinda hope this works out. The sanction paying for the tires is absolutely the right way to go about trying to implement such a plan.

                        It will cost the racer some way somehow.

                          Watch me. You certainly can. But it will stink.

                            In the long run, of course it will. Nothing even kinda free lasts forever. I'm just saying if they're trying to implement this rule, eating the cost of the tires in the introductory phase is the right thing to do.

                              facebook.com/LegitSpeedwayPark/videos this might shed some light on tire doping and having a uncut tire on might cause issues do not use dawn soap or wd40

                                sounds great to me. The old quote is that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." Maybe a cheater or two might slip through the cracks, but you can make it so miserable for them that they wonder if it's worth getting caught---kind of like driving 100 MPH on the freeway when you know the Wisconsin troopers are hiding in the bushes. Is trying to "get there fast" worth it when you know there is a good chance you will only get to court/jail ?
