NASCAR / Goodyear should be ashamed of themselves
Posted by Homer2680 on July 28, 2008 |
If anyone saw the race this weekend at Indy should have not wasted their time. Goodyear’s tires for the race were horrible. NASCAR had to put out a yellow flag every 10 laps to have everyone come in and get new tires. That is not racing, racing is about strategy. Knowing there will be a caution flag every ten laps takes a huge factor out of the race. It is like a pitcher in baseball only throwing fastballs, not that hard to hit the ball when you know what is coming.
I feel bad for the people who shelled out good money to see the race, they did not see a race, they saw something that should have never happened.
NASCAR should allow other tire manufactures to make tires. It would push Goodyear to make the best product. Without competition you never really get better.
