I remember the night my friend Tater and I were road racing the 23 miles between Paoli and Palmyra,IN on old US 150. It was after midnight, so there was next to no traffic. I was driving my old '68 Javelin with the 290 V8, and I don't remember what Tater was driving. I just remember that after all that high-speed cornering, at speeds hitting 90 mph on the straightaways, I got into Palmyra just in front of Tater. About 50 feet past the four-way stop in Palmyra, the recapped tire on my right front went "BOOM!"
Another minute sooner, on one of those corners like the one near Hoerner's Chapel Road, and I might not have survived. Needless to say, that was the last time I ever ran recapped tires on ANY of my cars.
