I know myself as a Goodyear dealer (in Canada), it is creating a huge headache for me. I know that if I was Jeff Perley, I would have remained a crewchief for a while longer!
They need to get plants going in China and India.

Drag race tires are also made at a Goodyear plant in Chile.
I was talking to one of the Goodyear engineers that travels with NHRA at the race in Vegas. He said the management types have taken over tire production in addition to their regular duties (overtime engineer's wages have got to be pretty good). He said that in their first week their production exceeded that of the regular workers and their doing it after a full days work! I assume this refers to the racing tire manufacture only, no idea what the passenger tire status is.
False... Goodyear moved all their drag tire production back to the states nearly three years ago!Drag race tires are also made at a Goodyear plant in Chile.
