@1KDave3 жыл бұрын
This was debated back when it happened last year.... some of them were stretching a small tire onto a larger wheel..... you can get away with that with limited prep..... can’t with radial prep.... the tire has a lot more forced being applied because it it can’t spin a little or move before damage happens.... top fuel was running the same weekend with a slick and no failures..... but they were not racing with stretched tires. Track was safe... what the racers did with their bikes made their bikes not safe when racing on radial prep..... Title it’s just click bait

Trivia alert: Motorcycle racer David Aldana had Bates Leathers make him the FIRST "bones" suit in 1975. The AMA threatened to revoke his license if he continued to wear it. No problem. Next race he had a new suit. Look! Up in the sky. It`s SUPERMAN.

10.5 tires on 12 and 13" rims, lightweight frames, tires not designed for the application, blaming the track prep is pointless IMO, they knew what they had and time after time continued to push the limit. Talking to Mark he told me that after last year with the issues he and Jean saw they decided a new tire every single pass was there only option, hence the huge stack in this video next to his trailer, not exactly a cost effective option. Over prepped for the handful of bikes....absolutely...tune for it just like the other big classes have to tune for an under prepped track for their operations. I know after last year MANCUP didnt want that crazy prep again. Some scary passes for sure, we all hate to see it!

The tire carcass is overheating in different areas of the tire. Mainly in the middle and its allowing the tire to release the energy toward the edge of the tires. The tire seems to big for the track asphalt and the tire wants to grip but not release the enertia. Al

Seems to me the tire is not growing as it should, I would start with adding more tire pressure to assure it stays in the patch. On 1 pass I could see straight thru the center of the tire ?

In the short term, they need to calm their track prep down, but long term; tyre companies need to up their game
@DavidC13 жыл бұрын
why do they overprep the track so much? is it that fine of a line? seems dangerous for bikes with overprep?
@1KDave3 жыл бұрын
They were stretching a small tire onto a big wheel.... when you do that and put down killer prep the tire can’t move like it wants to because it’s stretched.... top fuel bikes were ther running with more power and a big slick and they were fine..... but Jack does not talk about that. Now.... it is true that the big slicks and big power like a little wheel speed.... but again... top fuel was fine.... Jack knows his bracket stuff.... not big power stuff as much
