Goodyear had obvious reasons to move to radial tires but I've always thought that radials contributed to the loss of racing as I knew it. Even with the notorious Hendrick rear end linkage, I don't see cars hanging the back end out the way that they used to. Maybe it's just the angles that the TV networks are using. If you look at the old films on YouTube, it looks like those guys are showing some real talent getting the car through the corner. These days you hardly ever see a driver lose the back end all by himself.
Agree with all points you state, Andy.
Heard Dale Sr. said "he like the bias tire racing, don't like the radial tire racing"!!
