Yeah I just found this on DRC: "NHRA and Firebird officials have been working feverishly to correct a problem that was discovered
during the NHRA Arizona Nationals and despite their best efforts have not been able to overcome the
conditions. It was found on Friday that the wrong product of traction compound was sent to the
track and was used to prepare the racetrack the last two weeks. Officials believe that this is the
root of the problems with the racing surface."

I'm calling a huge BS on this latest "EXCUSE" I have a pretty reliable source that reported "parts of the racing surface were deteriorating as passes were being made"
