Okay, so I got curious about NASCAR tires the other day. Like, how much do those things actually weigh? You see them getting changed super fast during pit stops, and I always figured they must be heavy, but I wanted to know the exact number.
Digging for Info
First, I hit up the usual spots online. You know, just browsing around to see what I could find. Some forums, some articles, the whole deal. And I started finding some numbers, but they were all over the place! Some said this, some said that… I couldn’t get a firm idea.
Getting My Hands Dirty
And you know, it wasn’t enough to just read about it. I want to be feel. So, I try to find a way to get a NASCAR tire…It’s hard!
After a long time to try, my friend who works in a car repair shop helped me. Luckily I got one.
The Moment of Truth
I put the tire and wheel on my old bathroom scale. It’s not super scientific, I know, but it’s what I’ve got!
And guess what, I got a number! The total weight on my scale? It said 25kg.
Wrapping It Up
So, there you have it. From my little experiment, I can tell the NASCAR tire weights about 25kg.I finally satisfied my curiosity, and it’s pretty cool to know!
