If Brady would have blown an engine would you be saying that whoever manufactured the failed part screwed him? Brady is going to be just fine. He is a good racer, and as consistent as anyone.
It's not just Brady, I bet I've watched 20 USAC races in the last year and a half that the treads come off. Ballou and others are having the problem. There were people posting pictures last year of freshly mounted tires where there was a split in the tread down to the casing.
Brady made a video on the new tire earlier this year. How it's reversible etc.
Again, I ask, What's the point of a reversible tire if it won't last one race? And as such, shouldn't it be hard enough to make two races in the first place?
The goal was to save racers $ by using a set tire. How does burning three in a night save anyone $?
And yes, If someone bought three motors from X motor company and had em all go pop the first races out, I'd say there's a problem.
Do you not want to see races won by best setup and driver? I just don't remember many delam
inations in my history watching sprints until the last couple years.. Yeah, There's always been races where the first car to burn off a RR was the winner because it happened to everyone. But tread actually coming off the casing?
I don't hate Hoosier, I WANT BETTER QUALITY. and right now, you can't tell me nobody could do it better.
