Many ask how we run so fast on these Firestone Wide Oval tires that we run. Alot believe that they're fake tires, "special slicks" "wrinkle walls" "recapped tires" ect. Time to lay that all to rest, Here we show the exact tires we run and we show our tricks to make them HOOK!

Back when I was poor and just into bracket racing, I had a set of radial T/A's on my Camaro that hooked pretty good on the strip, not a terribly quick car. When I finally pulled them off the rim they had zero tread left with a light cord exposure, those sidewalls were like a 10 speed bike tire they were so well broken in.

Back in 1967, serving in the navy at Boardman bombing range in Boardman, Oregon, I took my 61 Chevy to a Les Schwab tire store in Hermiston, Oregon to address a rough ride. They cut the tires on a machine similar to the one you guys have to “re-round” the tires. Problem solved.

We shaved tires back in my circle track days and even grooved them for dirt tracks. I learned so much from those guys on how to get a small tire to stick. When you can pull a wheelie exiting a corner on a clay oval, you've got it figured out.

I never imagined stock tires would hook that well. They sure seemed to be happy to spin like crazy on my Camaros and Chevelles but I guess the key is low pressure and a cheater slick to slick surface. Pretty amazing stuff. You could probably hire me to toast all your tires off if you'd want to save wear and tear on that expensive looking machine.

First, another awesome video and thank you for showing and clearly explaining how these cars work! It’s insane how many people don’t understand the difference between Factory Stock and FAST classes. Anyone who can tie their own shoe should understand that these aren’t Bloomington Gold cars tickling an 8 second pass. Second, I like the voiceover intro!
