This can be one of your best friends, but not in this configuration. Eek It will not be very quick, but it'll get the job done. That's if the keyboard operator has some smarts.

That was idea of running on T n T at Piedmont. I figured on less than par track not triple bogey(one for dad there). Did not want a track prepped for a bracket race but one that was just clean. Actually my fault I should have known better.

Now Piedmont is uually tight track with very consistent racing surface. Unless it is small tire race then there is enough glue to run four races on.

My deal is set soft for starting line with higher gears in both transmission and rear end than I would call ideal for max performance. Plus I have a set of borrowed wheels and tires with more rollout I want to try.

I gotta ask. Has anyone seen any more import of the ingredients needed to make the glue happening? I haven't. My best guess is that what is being used now is simply what has been stockpiled. Take care. Tom Worthington


If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.

So just to be absolutely clear. This is brand new product, manufactured within the last month. This is NOT just more of the same old product that has been newly discovered from an existing stockpile?

If it is brand newly manufactured product, this is really big news! Is it going out nationwide? Take care. Tom Worthington

VP was proactive in overcoming supply chain issues

Supply chain issues have disrupted some of drag racing's traction compound suppliers. VP Racing Fuels isn't one of them, according to Bruce Hendel, Senior Vice President of Global Sales for VP Racing.

VP confirmed today that tracks can order VP's new LCHR traction compound or LC7 by calling VP's regional offices.


Take care. Tom Worthington

Correct. This is new stock. Not old stock. Pj still has access to the chemicals in need where as the others don't!
