I notice they didn't interview Tony after the race...sure would of liked to hear his opinion of the tire Goodyear had for the race!!!! Heck, I think the new tires on my pickup would have worked better then the junk they brought!!!!!

The track surface is for 1350 pound Indy cars, ya'd think them Goodyear engineers could have come up with something that went more the 10 laps, heck a set of Gatorbacks would have been better.... Well, I betcha today was really full of laughs at Hoosier Tire!!!!!!
I've seen 10-12 lap heats but only the hobby stock heats had more then 12-15 cars. Forty two cars in a heat plus Waltrip makes for wad up potential

Hoosier is trying to break that Goodyear stranglehold but NA$CAR says no way can they do that - kickbacks anyone, maybe. ARCA doesn't seem to have that tire problem with their Hoosiers - anywhere but Goodyear and about every third race seems to boil down to their tires!!

I think Tony is being quiet with his public utterances lately with his new 'association' and needing to be a good boy for a while - at least until he can get his act together for next year.
