Trailer Tires Overheating.

Bobby Labonte on restrictor plate racing: "That type of racing to me isn't as exciting as going 200 miles per hour at the end of the straightaway at Atlanta (which does not use restrictor plates) because I can control what I'm doing," said defending series champion Bobby Labonte. "I have the opportunity to let off the gas and hit the brake and all that stuff. At Daytona you don't do that. You just hold it wide open, and then you're in a pack of cars all day. It's obvious that's not the same type of racing we're doing everywhere else. It's not the same." http://tinyurl.com/twmd I guess you know more about racing than Bobby Labonte? There's only a few times you ever use brakes during restrictor plate racing- 1) To avoid an accident 2) To slow down while entering the pits 3) To slow down in the turns due to a handling/mechanical problem with the car. You are stupid, and WRONG... you dumb idiot, if you EVER LISTENED to a race broadcast, of say, Talledage, or Daytona, or other superspeedways, the commentators, racers all, will ALWAYS talk about using the brakes as opposed to lifting off the throttle ALWAYS. Why? With restrictor plates, if they lift, the RPM loss, and speed is much greater than if they brake. If they keep the fuel/air mixture pushing through the restrictor plate, the car comes back up to speed much quicker than if they lifted off of the throttle. It's pretty simple, but, I'm sure you still don't understand, JoeTechnician. Just what I figured, you know more about racing than Bobby Labonte. I'll add it to your list Please show where Bobby Labonte, or any other driver for that matter, has said that they don't use brakes at superspeedways. You, JoeTechnician are so stupid that you don't even understand what you've posted! He simply stated that, as opposed to short tracks, the driving isn't the same. On short tracks, you brake much harder, to a point of skidding some, and it upsets the cars, making the driving different. Jeez, dumby, of course you don't drive the same at a superspeedway as you do a short track. And you don't drive the same at a road course as you do a short track, or a speedway. And you don't drive the same at a downforce track as you do the others. You've not proven a damned thing, you dolt. |

Maybe you missed his quote- "I have the opportunity to let off the gas and hit the brake and all that stuff. At Daytona you don't do that.

Please show where Bobby Labonte, or any other driver for that matter, has said that they don't use brakes at superspeedways. I never said they "never use brakes" I said they are only three reasons they would, unlike non-restrictor plate racing where they are *required* to get around the track competitively. My post was in response to your statement that "they DO use the brakes, and quite a lot", which is not true. |
