The concrete surface at @ItsBristolBaby presents a challenge for NASCAR Cup teams in that it is relatively smooth and doesn't wear tires much. Considering that wear is good and vital in helping dissipate heat through the tread, Goodyear designs its tread compounds to promote wear

Goodyear will bring both Prime and Option tires to the NASCAR Cup All-Star race at North Wilkesboro. Both tires came out of a test at the track in March. The Option has a "softer" tread compound - will add grip & wear more, making tire management a bigger factor for the drivers.

In the NASCAR Cup race at Texas today, speeds will be high and teams will be searching for grip. One tuning tool they use is air pressure in the tires. Going below Goodyear's recommended pressures can damage a tire’s sidewall due to over-deflection and can result in air loss.
