Hey track folks, I'd like to hear some of your thoughts on this. I have a track day next Saturday, and I
justremembered that one of my rear tires is running a plug style tire repair.
^ not my tire, but its that style of repair
I do not want to take a chance running just a plug, so I was thinking about getting a proper plug/patch repair, as shown below
^with the patch on the inside and the plug to prevent debris from entering the puncture hole and wearing down the patch
How do you guys feel about running a patch/plug repaired tire? Have any of you run repaired tires on the track? If it is properly done, will it hold up to track abuse? The track is a 1.8mi course, not sure what the top speed is, but the longest straight is 962ft. This is just a mini school event so I think we only get 2 runs of 25 minutes each. If it is too dangerous, I might have to buy an unexpected pair of rear tires before the event
Any constructive comments are welcome, I don't want the typical "if you have to ask, you already know the answer" type stuff.
