In a word, no.

Almost all of the times that we raced at Calistoga in the 1990's until 2002, it was a tire-eating monster. Since they only race there 3 or 4 times a year now, and they haven't added clay/dirt to the surface is over 20 years, it's just likely that it was a normal Calistoga surface. And the track is at a California State Fairground, so racing isn't a priority to the Fairgrounds.

If, as the gasman50 fan says, the track was a tire eater last night, that's too bad, since the fans deserved to see a better race than that.....
