More questions, just curious ...

I wonder how much air pressure you would need to put in a M/T tire to
make it as rigid at rest as the centrifugal force makes it at 420 MPH?
It must be a bunch.

If a given Goodyear is good for 300 MPH at 1700 pounds as a drive wheel,
what might be a safe speed on a non driven wheel (front) with only 250
pounds load?
