Speedway Motorsports loves that stuff … because it helps to cover up how badly they messed up Bristol.I'm not watching, but has any other track even attempted that "grip compound" crap they appear to have ruined the surface with?
PJ1 TrackBite is synthetic resin.And Texas.
Tracks used sealer in the aughts. Richmond was one of them. I think Charlotte was another, when they weren't doing dumb shirt like "levigation." It seems like the PJ1 has fallen out of favor and the thing used now is resin.
I don't think that approach would work today. Which base models are remotely big enough to race? Would all the cars be Lincolns, Cadillacs and Buicks?
