New Goodyear Tire for the Fuel Classes

[willy]

It will take your current funny car points leader 4 National Events to get as much data as JFR or DSR at 1 National Event. "Not many" runs is a VERY relative term.

Tim was one the the testers...so I hope that equates to having the data.

NHRA News: Goodyear introduces new tire for NHRA fuel classes (5/29/2008)

Nice . . . hope the transition goes smoothly and safety increases.

I hate to ruin my reputation as the "Dood who only posts here to complain",
but I'm hoping this will be a positive development. It appears that some testing has been done with a variety of teams. It would be great to hear from team owners who still post here about how they will test this tire since
post-race testing is effectively banned - Mike, Shoe?
Remember, you can post questions for drivers and crew chiefs at DSR's site.
I'm gonna be all over that tomorrow!

This move should be just great. Now that summer is almost here.
