GOODYEAR TIRE NOTES

Fast Facts for August 11-13, 2006

Tire: Goodyear Eagle Road Course Radials

Number of Tires: Nextel Cup -- 2,200; Busch Series -- 1,150

Tire Code: D-4044 (all four tire positions)

Tire Circumference: 87.4 in.

Technical Inspection Inflation: Left Front -- 23 psi; Right Front -- 23 psi; Left-Rear -- 20 psi; Right Rear -- 20 psi

Minimum Recommended Inflation: Left Front -- 22 psi; Right Front -- 20 psi; Left Rear -- 17 psi; Right Rear -- 17 psi

Notes: As Goodyear's road course tire set-up, teams will run the same tires code (D-4044) on all four positions at Watkins Glen this weekend.

This is the second road course that teams in each series will run in 2006.

Teams in NASCAR's top three divisions also run this tire code on the right side at Martinsville.

As on all NASCAR road courses, teams will not run inner liners in their tires at Watkins Glen.
