Goodyear Streamlines NASCAR Tire Codes Across Series
Goodyear trims tire codes from about 40 to 15 16 per season for the Winson Gap Busch and Craftsman Truck series to simplify choice. The change uses track clusters and harder compounds that wear slower but reduce performance variance aiding inventory and cost control. Veteran teams may gain initial benefit as all teams operate under similar limits and drivers who adapt fastest could lead.
