There’s nothing Intermediate about Kansas except it’s length.
Teams return with a familiar Goodyear Racing Eagle setup, bringing valuable data and multiple strategy options into Sunday's race.
Now it's time to put that information to work over 400 miles. 🏁

What if I told you we actually did it?
And this isn’t even all of them.
We dropped the full set on Instagram. Same @. Go get yours.

Read that again.
Three hundred. Forty-six. Point nine five. Miles per hour.
Fastest pass in NHRA history.
Anyway, good morning to Shawn Langdon and Big Mo specifically.

I gave you a wet-weather tire thirst trap and not ONE of you trolled me with everyone’s least favorite word.
Disappointing.
With @NASCAR’s new wet-weather rules in play at Bristol this weekend, crew chiefs and drivers now have more discretion to decide where that line crosses over and the slicks become faster.
Here’s why you tire nerds should care. 👇
As the track dries, wet-weather Racing Eagles get hotter and wear faster. Stay on them too long and lap times start going the wrong direction.
Go to slicks too early and, well...they’re slicks.
Finding that crossover? That’s another layer of tire strategy.
Anyway, here’s your wet-weather Racing Eagle thirst trap. 💦

🏁 Bristol doesn't give anything away.
500 laps of concrete, chaos, traffic, and tire strategy under the lights. Our Goodyear Racing Eagles are built for the task.
Making them work when it matters most will be the difference maker. Who's leaving Bristol with the trophy on Saturday night? 👇

Good question. Sharing with the whole class.
Short answer: technically, no.
Longer answer: carbon black is doing a lot more than making the tire black. It helps with strength, durability and performance.
So periwinkle Racing Eagles are going to require some engineering. 😂
@GoodyearRacing weird question, do tires have to be black? Can we have red, pink, orange, blue, purple, green, yellow, brown, white, aquamarine, perrywinkle...etc tires?

Brakes get hot. Tires take the load. Strategy takes over.
World Wide Technology Raceway is one of the toughest tracks on the schedule when it comes to managing heat and maintaining grip over a run. Teams return on the same Goodyear Racing Eagle tires used here last season, armed with data and looking for an edge.
Who's your pick to play the strategy game best on Sunday? 👀

Admin took last weekend off.
Race team said they could handle the content.
Receipts attached. 🧾
Might have to ask them to do this more often.

🇬🇧 Darlington 🤝 Darlington 🇺🇸
This weekend, Goodyear Racing takes on two very different challenges on either side of the Atlantic, with the BTCC at Croft Circuit in Darlington and NASCAR heading to Darlington Raceway in South Carolina.
Two Darlingtons. One weekend. 🦅

Darlington never takes it easy on tires.
With one of NASCAR’s most abrasive surfaces and The Chase kicking off in the Southern 500, we’re bringing a proven tire package that teams know and trust.
What’s the bigger challenge at Darlington: managing tire wear or avoiding the wall? 👀🏁

Tire nerds: we dropped some fun facts on another app today.
I won’t name names, but it rhymes with Shminstagram.
Same @ handle. Drop a 🦅 when you get there so I know you came from here.
