  1. 15:30 Rubber is very interesting material because if you press is too hard, it will lose some of its friction because of shearing. That's the reason why using narrower tires is not better for all cases. Basically you could drive fastest by using the narrowest possible tires that do not year shear. That's why street sports cars using insanely wide tires are more looks than purpose.

  3. The whole video should have had "this is not scientifically correct terminology or explanation" but otherwise it's good. The explanation of tire contacts twisting demonstrated by hands on the floor was clever.
