Still coolest race I’d seen on a Nascar track was Danica Patrick’s first race in an Indy car at Richmond International Racetrack …..
Indy cars on that track was insane racing like you can’t imagine….very cool

Honestly I like that NASCAR is testing rain tires/wet weather tires on short ovals, I believe it could definitely be revolutionary to short track racing if done right. Especially now doing it with Bristol cause of how many times it rains in Bristol when NASCAR comes to town. It’s quite the interesting idea and it’s very beneficial. The only problem I have is how NASCAR has handled it. They want to run it in damp conditions which is fine, the problem is you’re talking 36 cars max on a half mile to 1 mile tracks and a 1/4 mile stadium. A dry line is gonna form rapidly when ya got cars driving constantly in 1-2 lines. Take Martinsville for example. Ran the first time in the rain there in the Truck race and the racing line was dry after 3-5 laps in damp conditions. There was barely any spray to say so. North Wilkesboro was able to stay a little more wet cause of the old pavement with all the seams trapping water.

Also NASCAR can we stop calling it a “wet weather tire” it’s an intermediate tire! Rain tire/wet weather tire, it’s both the term for rain tires in general. An intermediate tire, which is what these tires r, r tires meant for wet conditions but not for a completely wet track. Anyone would know this from other motorsports.

Open wheel racing: Intermediate and Wets.
Sports car racing: some series having Intermediates and Wets and others just Wets.
NASCAR: rAiN tIrEs and wEt wEaThEr tIrEs.
