Jeff Gordon: Indy tires fixed
The word Tuesday from Sprint Cup drivers taking part in the latest tire test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway was mission accomplished. All agreed that they now have a tire from Goodyear which will allow them to avoid the type of race-day embarrassment the sport suffered a year ago in the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard. “I will guarantee it,” four-time series champion Jeff Gordon said Tuesday when asked if fans will see a good race this year at Indy. “I’m 100 percent confident. I ran this tire as hard as I possibly could, put numerous laps on them. It’s a dead issue.” — Racin Today
I hope the tires work … last year was a embarrassment for Nascar.
