Almost everyone had a blistering problem. Some on RR's, others on the LR's. Blooms was flat out delaminating, but only on one half of the tire. The degree of blistering(if any-surely there were some that didn't have any) varied from car to car. I can't remember that many teams having problems at one 30 lap event. That was all that I meant. As I already stated, hopefully it's a one time problem. Probably pretty difficult for any manufacturer to achieve perfection 1st time out. Perhaps the word 'debacle' that I had used previously was a little over the top, and for that, I aplogize.

If I can't go to Winchester on the 15th, maybe somebody can post the compounds on here for me. But then again, even if compounds are unchanged, the construction of the tires could be different. Salem compounds were M130 left rear and 132 right rear.
