You cannot just spray some glue down, that makes it even worse and will make it slick as ever.

With all this traction compound talk lately, I think we are forgetting the responsibility of the organizations and the tracks. Their responsibility of the track surface is to make it SAFE, not to make it the best starting line of all time. It is the drivers/cars responsibility to make the car work with the track.

The above often gets lost when people start complaining about track prep.

Austin I accidentally came off the throttle stop in low gear the first pass when I was at XRP. It didn't spin although next thing I know it was banging the chip. I recently found out D4 had been using VP at the Division races most of the year.
