I had never ran my car outside of Div 3 until this race. I am told D3 tracks only use VHT. Gainesville says they used a VP product.

I have talked to bracket racers and some lower powered stick cars that say they can't tell the difference between VP and VHT. Stock and Super Stock converters hit much harder, so we have problems where weekend bracket racers won't. I wish NHRA would require VHT at all member tracks.
