Traction has always been an issue. I like going there but its disappointing not being able to see what kind of #'s your car runs. I havent been there since the beginning of the year but im sure it hasnt changed

ON DRAGS!!!! If it was alittle stickier for street tires it wouls be better but I guess that means I have to get another set of wheels for my track play

Why would you bitch about track prep if you are on street tires? That is like an oxymoron. If you want your car to hook, put it in a drag radial or slick.

I was that prep crew the last half of last season....are you really that stupid you think the right lane is always bad? have you ever thought why it might have been bad? sorry to pop your bubble but spills happen in BOTH lanes, not to mention heat, radials goin down.....I really wish Darwin's theory would kick in on you....


PS- good luck hookin on 235/60/15 radials

LOL,, make a post about the RIGHT LANE at 41 and ull be amazed at the posts. maybe its not the PREP crews fault,but alot of people refuse to run in the right lane. theres alot of money being made there and the place is a dump.

I've never had a problem there, hooks better than GLD.

I cut consistant 1.4X 60fts cam only at 41. Never had a problem there either. But then again, I am no member of the 12 second club, so I don't know what it is to go fast...

Yeah maybe one of these days you'll get to be cool and make a 12.90 pass but who knows...

I've seen plenty of cars dead hook as stay hooked up down both lanes....Or at least it was last chaos.

I don't like the shutdown at gld...I was even in a 13 second car when I ran it there I'd hate to see what it's like trapping at 130 or better. Must be fun.
