So when I tactfully go and address the traction problem on the starting line the most usual comment from the starter is work on your stuff lol
so before I ask him about what the problem is with the starting line I quietly say mr starter I have the latest and Greatest TIRES,
I have Fresh shocks and a very good convertor and Trans plus I am Taking out t timing on the leave can you tell me what to do to make my car hook on your slick track??

As I predicted the pro stocks at first could not get down the track until NHRA paused the time trials and sprayed the track with something>the track was still marginal big-time NHRA needs to use the correct traction glue, not some stuff that has not worked at Pomona, Vegas and Indy points meet, and now Bristol do we see a trend going on here of course

Track Temp? New weather conditions?

Rumor at the local track today was that traction compound is just another thing to put on the short supply list. Must be those drags strips in Russia using more. BP
