Re: Good call by Jim Oberhofer & his boys

The right call was made . Period . Was it there when the tire dude put it on ? Did it develope afterwards in the wait between ? Is it really Goodyears problem ? Who knows ? This is what teams have to deal with , and they did the right thing . Everyone has the same tires , I hope they have the same shot callers as this group . Its hard to beat that group of knowledge over there , thats for darn sure . I hope all the teams are looking for this now . A little burn out and hopes that Whit or his team dropped the ball was a long shot , but I still dont think these guys would put anything at risk for the driver , ever . I also dont think that the tire guy could over look it , he also has alot of other eyes over there that might see something like that before going to the line . Never under estimate the O's , big K , and Dick O ....

I thought Goodyear did the tire mounting, don't they have a truck at the race for this?
