    Chris, this is an interesting video! The front wheel view clearly shows the bumps in the track that we can’t feel going down the track.

    It is now more understandable that the Pro Stocks with their very limited suspension travel and Fuel cars feel these irregularities on a pass which can unload their rear tires.
