i couldnt agree more. the past 3 years i've gone to several test& tune sessions before divisional lodrs races. the most recent one at indy this last friday. track was slippery. cecil was bad on test& tune days along with a few others. maple grove& atco have some good bite most times at test&tune. but some track operators seem to think the higher hp stock/ss cars dont need any more track prep than local bracket cars. you come a day early to try a few things spend the whole day learning nothing because of poor traction, wasting a workday, 1 extra motel night etc wasting expensive runs on the car+additional t&t entry fees. come race day then nhra does the track prep & the bite is good. but then theres only 2 or 3 qualifying runs& not enough time to test. i think the track operators need to get on the same page as the racers as to prep needed for t&t sessions.

I guess it all depends on the track owners - we ran Friday night test-n-tune at the new Dragway 42 and had the best 60' times ever - even better than last years U S Nationals
and we run a B/S - 9" tire with a stick. |

I suppose thats the reason most lodrs ads say--test& tune run by the track. I know my 427 stick copo is high on the list of needing the stickiest track but there are lots of lower class cars complaing too.
