Midwest dirt vs Red Clay

[TritonJrBluePlate]

Planning to run a red clay track this weekend for the first time. Been running hard brown with a little sandy dirt.

What are some main differences? And how should we prepare our Burris33's?

I'm assuming the track will be harder than what I'm used to.

Any recommendations for types of prep to use?

Don't I remember Farm track stays soft moist slick and you gotta kill the tires with prep

Some guys that have been around a while compared Farm Track to Lightning Valley. Don't know, I've never personally visited Farm Track, but the Valley (Junction City) was a river bottom dirt and always a goat track.

There are some good alternatives to goat today (our Monster Bite is one,) but some times you gotta get on aggressive stuff to get the tires in the track.

Went to the farm track about a month ago. Definitely gotta wipe the entire day, I would wipe base during the week just to have something in them. Its really no different than triple d dirt, it keeps in moisture i think we used purple last time.
