if its just on the fender, wait for it to build up and scrape it off. next time u go to the track, spray some PAM on it.

try washing your car, lol, it should come right off if you've ever put a coat of wax on it, mine comes right off and I havent polished my car since it wuz new, if its stuck that bad try some honda spray polish and a rag, or maybe your fingernail to pick them off, or alcohol on a rag might work.............................................. .. wait are you talking about having the slicks that stick out and its all over the TOP of the fenders?, and all that burnout pit crap melted on there too?

You could try Buy and Tar remover from any auto store. That stuff seems to work really well for things of that sort. Good luck!
