Hoosiers rotating on the wheel!

Subject: Hoosiers rotating on the wheel!

This is amazing to me, check out my R6's in these pics or more specifically, the red stripes on the tire and wheel. They were mounted without soapy water by a shop that does alot of circle track tires. They were brand new and you can see that the RF tire rotated in the braking direction (asuming that it did not rotate fully multiple times. This may or may not be a valid assumption???). I marked them with a paint stick to see if the rotate and they certainly did! This is after 6 sessions at NHMS with me and Roy Benedetti driving.

Now here is the LR and it has rotated in the torque direction (again, same assumption):
