Each tire costs about $400. Nine sets of tires costs around $15,000.

I guess NASCAR could mandate 30 or so laps under yellow with the pits closed.

Oh...Yeah, all the drivers should just go about 55 so they arrive alive!!

Kenseth said they just have to run about 8 laps before the tires blow up. He says you get a warning when they start viberatin’ in the corners...

Then they’d have to stop to replace the track every few laps.

I’ve heard it mentioned a couple of times that this track has been rough on tars since they ground it down. How long ago was that? I figured that that sort of thing is not that abnormal, like they might do this maybe once in-between resurfacings to keep the surface even.
