Truex may have a tire going down. Left rear, looks soft!

Well I did all my computer maintenance. I was headed for the shower, saw them rolling off pit road.

So I say to myself "self"(sounds like Emeril) why not turn on the computer and see if anybody is there.

Good work... truex slams the wall. Guess they can afford a new car as opposed to a tire and a lap.

DW the tire expert questions Tony's right rear. Tony thinks so too.
