Al Teague had a tire spin indicator on his car that saved him a lot of
tires.
It also prevented blowouts and the risk of crashing. An excellent safety
tool.
Hmmmmmm, what a great idea. I guess it measured front wheel RPM compared to
rear wheel rpm???? Should be "easy" to do with a real time data recorder.
Eventually I could feel it but only when they broke loose a lot. Slight spin
was impossible to detect. From the looks of the ruts down track, many racers
can't detect it either.
We want traction control, we want traction control! It would be safer.
