I am of the opinion, that even if you use a lowly durometer, in front of God and everyone involved, even if it is flawed , the fact that you did, and they saw you do it, it is better than sending it to who knows where, and no one sees anything tested, there's comfort in that at least, once you remove it from the area, it becomes a question.

Like I said, I and others who don't know squat. Still don't.
There have guns out there that you can put up against car paint on a car and it will tell you what color combinations, amount of thinner etc to match it.
If that can happen, Why not a spot checking type of gun. If that spot check fails then send those samples initialed, sealed validated by team to lab. Again, IN PERSON, for all to see.
Know the Durometer thing was enforced at Bloomington a couple years ago after it was determined there was a problem. Don't know if there has been any problem since.
Also recently found that two prior teams *Busted* by USAC had been found to have known doping compounds seen by the lab many times before and the results were not contested.
Like I said. Knowing they are testing, You still do it? not just one, but four, In a way not seen before or known? In the exact same way. Sounds more fishy to me than the lab screwing it up.

Keith has contracts with midgets. The tire they run in midgets is also so soft there’s no need to soften it. I’m betting if it wasn’t for those contracts he’d be gone from that too.

People are doping no matter what you guys want to believe. It’s been going on for awhile actually. USAC has been using their big broom to sweep it under a rug even before Levi left. This news is no shock to any race team. And since it has been brought up Kendall Ruble won that race. He beat other guys doping. Doping is like steroids in baseball and cycling. Pretty common
