Thanks for watching! Good luck and Roll Tide!!

Make sure to start your cuts at the pressure side of the block. Ring cuts start front to back,front being the direction of travel. Face cuts on right side tires make sure the outside to inside. Left side goes inside to out. Never sipe deeper then credit card width. Grind before you sipe. Grind left side tires with the outside facing you right sides insides facing you. Hard tires need lots of edges that are sharp.

Nice little cost effective tool! I cut my RF the same I just run my diagonal cuts from RF to LR so that the blocks are straight ahead when turned to the right. I don't know if that's the right answer or not but just my preference like you guys said ask 100 people and get 100 different answers!

Hello, I've got a similar regrooving machine. What is the knob that says shift for ? Also where do you guys buy the blades , my machine didn't come with any instructions as what brand blades to buy that would fit the head. Thanks for any info.

I like tire work I find it relaying and I cut according to track but always start with basic design like you did on front tire cut more if track will allow if same with rear as may shap corners as possible in contact with the track with out blistering/chunking the tire and of course sipping is also all about track conditions and length of race as well

We usually run 20 25 lap features and most tracks will be slick and black once the rain moves out. Any thoughts on sipes for those conditions?

@@LateModelGarage if it is slick and black, your biggest concern is heat. On a track like that I like to keep the sipes shallow at no more than 1/2-3/4 tread depth and I like to keep my sipes spread out a bit further. If your sipes are too close and too deep you'll get a lot of tread flex causing heat and will most likely chunk out the tread blocks. Hope that helps some.

Where do you get the right blades for that machine I have the same machine but I can't find the right blades

We buy All Star blades in a variety of sizes . They fit pretty good!

At 6:48 I see you guys do the siping of the tires at an angle what is the difference from someone that does them straight across the tire. Is there any advantage?

@LateModelGarage

We are not sure if there is an advantage or not. Seen cars win with straight blocks and cut on the angle. Seems to be different for each driver.

The RR looks good though just watch your depth on your sipes too deep will chunk out a tire and it will turn into 170 bucks out the window

We started off thinking it was an 08'. When Tater came by he called the office and ran the chassis number and found it was sold in 2006 to a distributor in Ohio.

Your angles are going the wrong way for a right front tire. Always run circumference grooves and on a right front tire always trace your lines. And keep everything as neat and straight as possible. Siping depends on your track surface on a soft tire I wouldn’t sipe the tire much. When you get to a hard tire like a 1600 sipe the tire a lot more aggressively

Could you give some reference as to which way you like to groove the front tires? We have debated doing them a little different.
