Every one has their own VHT rituals for streetracing, the point is it works and it smells verrrrrrrrrrrry sweet. my only suggestion dont put too much down at once and if you do make sure its dry, also dont wear new shoes around this crap and be prepared to smell like it... which isnt a bad thing, my favorite is the litte flying webs of it the fly up when a fresh spot is driven over LOL

When that tacks up, depending on how warm it is, just pull a foot or two back from the starting line and pour a puddle and do your burnout. Make sure you do it a couple feet back else you will get backed up right into the puddle.
EXACTLY!

the most important part is backing up off the line for your burnout cant stress that enough if not you will sit in a puddle of this stuff when you launch and it is very slippery in a puddle form.

also we dilute the track bite with a bit of alcohol to keep the spayer tip from clogging up.

this stuff is a MUST for the street, and the more you use it you'll realize its essential for any hard leaving car on the street.

I swear I had found a shampoo that smelled just like it (by accident of course). I can't remember what kind it is anymore. Sure helps relieve the sadness of winter though, well that and putting racing gas in the 4 wheeler...

...local speed shops usually sell it, has been around forever. I think it smells like that pop (surge remember that?). I wouldn't advise spraying it on your tires and driving to a location, it'll be gone by that point. Also don't step in it or where it used to be, you'll lose your SHOES!

I've got to agree with REDHAT here. We use alot of clorox out here in redneck land. You can buy a small bottle at the 7-2-11 for two bucks and it gets the job done. Made me laugh someone else had posted that.

Here is proof it works, watch the first burnouts vs the 2nd burnouts! The s10 has gone 8.80's, cobra 10.0's on the old combo and 6 speed, much faster now. The firebird is a big cubic inch sbc with the juice.
