The tread bars were visible but @ no point on that tire was there 'no tread'. The tire passed DOT/state inspection but it was 'near' the end of its service life.
I feel it was based more on how things went down.....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
