DARLINGTON, S.C., April 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Darlington Raceway and Goodyear (NASDAQ: GT) today announced a partnership on the entitlement of the spring NASCAR Cup Series race as part of the Official Throwback Weekend of NASCAR on May 9. The official name of the race will be the Goodyear 400.
In keeping with the theme of the Official Throwback Weekend of NASCAR, Goodyear will replace the yellow “Eagle” logo on the sidewalls of its racing tires with a vintage “Blue Streak” sidewall design. The Blue Streak tires reflect the design of NASCAR tires used in the 1960’s and 1970’s.

Even used, wet-weather racing tires, by virtue of having tread, can help Michelin make decisions about tread patterns that can find their way to the consumer market.
GREENVILLE, S.C. Those used tires coming off race cars running in the International Motor Sports Association are black gold to researchers at Michelin North America Inc.
Every turn, every hill, every course puts to the test the company s tires, which are collected after each race and analyzed to provide valuable insight into performance.
The details then are used to not only improve the company s racing tires, but in the development of Michelin s traditional tires sold to the general public, said Tom Sullivan, motorsports marketing manager at the Greenville-based tire maker.
