The tyres are worn down to a point they were never intended to run at, I don't know but the rubber compound could be completely different that far down, not to mention the risk of punctures.
Well, safer and better in the driver's mind until they fly too close to the sun and realize following the accident that there was a puncture or that the rubber delaminated off the belt during the commute. This happened fairly regularly at the track I worked at, though that was more from folks running their slicks too long.
No, it's not. Modern tyres are not just some rubber in the shape of a roundel. They have different layers of rubber, metal and other stuff. When you wear them down like that, you're not riding on the compound which is intended to make contact with the ground.
If slick tyres are used in F1, they’re good enough for me.
Make sure you use your tire warmers every morning.
Use the butane crack torch. Got it.
Or just crack.
I'm not just gonna waste butane when I can multitask.
Should oil the brake pads too, don't want them to squeak.
A look to die for.
If it's not raining/snowing etc. then it's actually safer and better.
A drive to the store would have the wires showing. These tires weren't designed for this

How exactly is it safer?
Same energy
True lmao. I'm sanding my brain brb
When I found this meme it ruined the next two years of my friends' lives
Made me laugh more than my post did
Come on now, this meme has been getting reposted so much its starting to degrade.
Well I'm tyred of it.
This meme is so old it should be retired.
We are checking
Box, box. No stay out. Stay out!
So, do you want a new set of mediums or prefer a new set of hards? Question.
Smooth ride to the mortuary
Keep it this way, so Darwin can do his job
racing slicks baby, more contact patch
Each time this meme get reposted his tyre gets sanded down just a bit more.
As with speed, as with smooth driving: start with the suspension.
brb sanding down my suspension
Why stop there? If sanding things down makes performance more optimal, I'mma sand down every component in my vehicle.
No no you're missing the point. Sand the road flat.
Aye
You're not thinking this all the way through, why sand flat when you can sand downhill?
Sanding down the pistons rn
Those transmission gears would probably work way better without those teeth on 'em.
Don't forget your camshafts.
And the crankshaft bearings
Attaboy!
F1 is everything but smooth
It also plays a big role in towing capacity.
Grip>displacement
Also less microplastics by abrasion on the road.
OP already did all the abrasion in advance!
Thats a smooth way to see god.
Smooth ride into a wall
