Well I continue to learn more every day. I was always under the impression that even track cars have their tires balanced. I specifically remember seeing wheel weights on the rims of GT3 Cup cars at Sebring. But apparently a lot of people think it's a waste of time and energy to balance them since the tire moves on the rim in high-G corners, lock ups, etc. What say you, o 914 racing veterans?
