But for people who like to B1tch about dirt track racing conditions I would suggest paved race tracks, although some do tend to dig up and rut up when the temp rises also. Perhaps we need inclosed dirt race tracks with A/C. and a constant temp and humidity.

Give it a break people it's only dirt, and "GOD" not the "EPA" and surely not track promoter makes the weather conditions.

Good you tube on the Dunkin family preparing the Knoxville race track.

I remember that stuff... My eyes would burn until about Tuesday. It kept the moisture in though.

it was basically a 55 gallon drum of "dish detergent". Didn't have a speck of dust for the 3 years I had the track, and, with the exception of the first time I graded the track myself (thank you to Jr. Smalley & Alan Barr for helping me out of that!), we never had any track prep after hot laps.....

Making an effort is also a prep secret.

Alan is still doing well. He lives in Cicero Indiana and you'll see him at the race track occasionally. He is doing well.

I have seen calcium cchloride used in the last year. Tree huggers and EPA are not to blame, it is very expensive, so it is not cost effective. It is also very corrosive to equiptment. Not very user friendly. Might try some research. Just being honest.
