Yup. Making power is one thing,but putting it to the ground is another thing.

As for prep, last time they did lay down some prep early, but never did reprep the track. The problem is since this is a street night you get a lot of people on regular tires or drag radials that eat up the prep. Additionally, there are not many big tire cars to keep good rubber down.
