.Martinsville Speedway is unique, in that it has asphalt straightaways and concrete corners. Goodyear's goal with its tread compounds is to lay rubber in the corners, which (1) creates fall-off early in the race and (2) opens up a second racing groove as drivers search for grip.

NASCAR Cup teams are leaving pit road to start the race at Richmond Raceway. They will be starting on wet weather tires.
Stage breaks in tonight's 400-lap NASCAR Cup race at Richmond Raceway will be at lap 70 and lap 230.
Under dry conditions, Richmond Raceway is a high tire wear track, so teams should see plenty of fall-off over the course of a run. Tire wear brings tire management into play for the drivers and creates more 'comers' and 'goers' throughout the field, leading to more passing.
NASCAR Cup teams will have 9 sets of dry weather 'slick' tires - 8 race sets plus their qualifying set - for tonight's 400-lap, 300-mile race at Richmond Raceway (7:00p ET on FOX: NASCAR & Motor Racing Network). In case conditions warrant, teams will also have 4 sets of wet weather tires.
