Being race director at Speedworld in AZ we have been using strip grip for a couple years now. Temperature determines the the mix ratio. We scrub track and drag the track and drag in the gold dust on bald spots. Sometimes light glue or heavy gluing done by the speed of tractor when spraying. Is the track great? Sometimes yes and sometimes just ok.For instance if we have import night we lose so much rubber on starting line and have to drag alot to get a base before glueing. Also how much base we have determines when to scrape track. Its not for lack of trying it seems to be more temp related and type of cars for the day.
