Default Best tire prep for the street?

After doing the Dr pepper trick a few times (once I even mixed it with MEK and torched) with success, I'm looking to try out something new for these virgin roads. Which compound is most recommend? Vht, ultra blue, pimpjuice, etc. And where do you guys purchase? Thanks

I've used Dr Pepper mixed 50/50 with Karo Syrup and it's pretty badass. I'd like to try ultra blue and see how it does

Just used an empty 2 liter bottle and put 2 holes in the lid and kind of fanned it back and forth over the road. I would like to try a sprayer but that syrup is pretty thick idk if it would work

I have always used track bite. Works great. From what I have seen about Ultra Blue I'm not impressed.

Back when I had my C6 this event was done with Mtn Dew. I kept yelling at the crew to stop drinking the prep.

Vht and cut it with MEK. You play with the mixtures. The MEK helps dry it out quicker if that makes sense so it tacks up quicker.

I've seen Pimpjuice work like a mf in person. But I don't think you can get ahold of it any more. I thought the Dr.Pepper was just straight Dr.Pepper. Pour it down roll through it and light em up?
