Tire man, go get our first set, let Goodyear know what we are expecting to use today. In those days we had to take our own wheels to the tire shop and have all the tires mounted and stored until we needed them. Need to make sure all the tires are aired up to 30 lbs per tire, that’s where we will start, if we get a hot day with high track temperatures, we’ll probably have to drop that. As the track increases in temperature and the tires get hotter from running, they tend to expand therefore creating more air pressure, need to make sure we don’t start out too high or we have a very ill handling car. To much air means the car gets hard to handle, creates under steer or loose in the corners. Tires are one of the most important items on race day, they have to be right.
