Flat tire or not, I would continue to drive the car to a place where it was SAFE to change the tire. I hope the AAA guy has enough common sense to assess the situation and determine the safety issue's before procedding.

At some point NOT using common sense crosses the line between "accident" and "foolish".

When your racing "wheel to wheel" (as I DO on the "track") you really put your life in the hands of your fellow competitors. You have to know and trust them. If someone has a "grudge" WE won't let him on the track. Thats the biggest problem with street racing, there is just no telling WHAT the "other guy" might do. The "rules" aren't applied on the street like they are on the "track", increasing the "risk" factor enormously.
