Ever since they started using PJ1 the starting line has not been sticky. This is a real problem for high HP cars. At No Problem, when you would walk on the track, it would pull your shoes off! In 2013, I have not noticed my shoes coming off and bald spots a plenty. The only thing different is everyone is using PJ1! That's what I noticed.

The problem is not PJ1, at Piedmont Regular Pro Mod racers run 3.80's in the 1/8 on PJ1 testing many times a month, there is a process to prep the track and NHRA does it before the pros run.
