| Goodyear Now Owns M/T | Login/Join |
| DRR Trophy |
Now that Goodyear has acquired Cooper Tires along with Mickey Thompson Tires, what will this mean for the future of M/T drag slicks? | ||

Means Goodyear got their drag racing slick tire technicians back. | |||

Free money zero percent interest loans, why not? Zombie company's, robbing Peter to pay Paul. Debt, the new wealthy. It's a ticking time bomb, unsustainable system of free money created out of thin air. Goodyear was already losing money on every tire it sold. Fact  This message has been edited.

I have wondered that also. Could be the giant roll out killing ET. I really don't know. Are they faster or just faster because you don't shake and if you can run GY without shaking they are faster? ____________________________ 2017 and 2018 Osage Casinos Tulsa Raceway Park No-Box Champion 2018 Div4 Goodguys Hammer award winner | |||

I remember when that stroke of genius took place with the installation of a new CEO at GY (visible confirmation of "improvement"). Hated it then, still hate it today. Illegitimi non carborundum | |||

Bingo TD! Say good bye to cooper too.. like so many other High performance purchases. Comp high hp cars thrive on wheel speed, easier with a non aggressive Goodyear or old Goodyear’s..But some Comp guys like David Rampy figured out how to make a Hoosier fast!

Well, and the tires seem to be quite small compared to bracket tires. It's funny, I never had an issue with my 12.0" tires. But ohh I'm going faster and I need a bigger tire to be safe and consistent.....LOL. See how that worked out. Foxtrot Juliet Bravo | |||

I'm just wondering if everyone who said no more Goodyears in this thread are giving up your MTs? LOL https://drr.infopop.cc/eve/foru...912/m/9707081496/p/1 ____________________________ 2017 and 2018 Osage Casinos Tulsa Raceway Park No-Box Champion 2018 Div4 Goodguys Hammer award winner | |||

If you were to buy a couple sets now how long do you think they would be good for stored in a cool dark place? Working for the Weekend!!!! Fordyce Motorsports | |||
