    We have to mount the tires on the rims.
    Your car is not the only car in the shop so it’s mostly 2 of us working on your car. The fastest I done a set with more than two people working on a car was 15mins
    We have to do safety procedures to ensure we don’t break your tpms sensor, damage your struts, strip your lug nuts and, make sure your tire won’t come of when driving.

    Couple things to consider.
    1. The race is under yellow. So the urgency is not at it's peak.
    2. This is a smaller team/field filler, likely down a lap or two.
    20 seconds is not what we would call a good pit stop by any means, but still impressive.

      What in gods name has led you to believe grocery clerks are even going to try to perfect their task? There's no way to make someone take something so menial that seriously. Thats like giving a toddler a hot wheel toy and telling them to treat it like a real car that they're proud of. Even if they understand what it means to take pride, even if they understand how to properly care for the car, its a cheap toy, and they know it. Sooner than later they will get tired of caring. Maybe I'm overly cynical, but I don't think anyone has a passion for stocking the floor. Passion is what leads to near-perfection. Personally, I'd have them work on maintaining charisma during interactions with customers lol... Baby steps, right?

    Does anybody pick up the lug nuts?

    Don’t the removed lug nuts stick in tyres or fly around the pit area. ?

    I've always wondered why they don't custom make some compressor tools to do all the nuts at once?

      H.chittell they also have 3 guys per wheel and 1 lug NASCAR they have 4 guys on the wheel they do 1 side at a time plus 5 lugs on each wheel so F1 better be faster

    • @yee2494
      @yee2494 Před 6 lety

      Aaron Slaughter f1 one has more guys than nascar, f1 literally has 2 tire carriers for one wheel. 1 to take the tire out and one to put the new tire in, plus there are no nuts just one huge circle in the middle of the tire

    • @sylvernale
      @sylvernale Před 6 lety +1

      Honestly curious about the restriction: does Nascar want it to be harder for some reason?

    • @corne0114
      @corne0114 Před 6 lety

      David Carlson no, nascar wants to be safer, 2 second pistops are risky and if you make a single mistake you're fucked

    Imagine if instead of changing the entire wheel that had to take the wheel off change the tire on the rim and then put the wheel back on

  • @ferrari884
    @ferrari884 Před 4 lety

    Do those impact wrenches torque the lug nuts to something specific or are they just tightening them down to whatever can happen the quickest?

    • @Matsumoto77
      @Matsumoto77 Před 4 lety

      Tony Ferrari just tightened at random, if they are loose or not all 5 are on you can be penalized

    so for nascars you don't need to follow the 5 star pattern?
