Burris 33's. I have three features. I think I'm going to do another set with Ruby in addition to the Black Sand set. TBD on the third set.What tires and is there more then one set.
Burris 33s ?This is such a great thread for Track Tac Customers.
A couple weeks ago I went to Clay City in Kentucky for the first time. I was originally just planning to run the Welch Race in May. While there a couple weeks ago I was told to ignore the current conditions when preparing for the May event. It was mild, windy, sunny and extremely dusty. I used Black Sand and Acrysol and it seemed fine considering I won my class. I decided that I would travel down for this coming weekend and run the bigger race. I have tires wiped with two wipes of Black Sand and ready. However, the weather looks like it is going to be raining every day until Saturday. Was also told they will be applying Calcium. Considering the rain and calcium I do not think my Black Sand tires will work unless the tracks really dries out through out the day.
The track is NOT a red clay track but instead it seems like a hard dirt track with some grit on the surface. Seems sandy but abrasive. The weather looks nice 70 degrees and sunny. Qualify during the day and race at night.
What Track Tac product would be good for this track? Good Water content and Calcium. Qualifying and Features.
Yes sirBurris 33s ?
It was sealed over last Nov for the Welch Memorial, yes it will go dusty without calciumToo bad Clay City was rained out I'd like to see how this went.
Ken I've never seen that track seal over. I'm going there tomorrow and will be curious. I expect the track to be dusty and the pits flooded. Should be interesting.
Unfortunately we had to miss that race. In fact, the last 4 schedule money events there besides the 11/5 race have all been rained out. We were ready for all of those.It was sealed over last Nov for the Welch Memorial, yes it will go dusty without calcium
Track tac blue tire wash is a favorite around here. Never been in that area so have no idea of prep.Someone lead me down the right path..... Daughter is starting karting for first time this season. we are newbs. she will be running predator classes for at least 2 years. Racing primarily in southern ohio (wheelersburg, farmers) and eastern ky (Willard, clay city) we have a couple new seats of burris 33a and a few used sets that I know the history of. point me in a direction for tire prep, wash etc....
Your tires at Wheelersburg will require to have some soft sets of Burris 33's. They'll need to be around 45 Duro to be competitive. That track is typically soft and damp. Farmers is an Open Tire rule that Yellow Vegas seem to dominate. I think it is also a daily soft track. I do not know a thing about Willard. Clay City will be the opposite of Wheelersburg. For a local show you can wipe newer tires with a bite only. Early in the week is best let them dry. I recommend Black Sand but it needs about 10 days to dry properly. You can also use Rough Cut Diamond at the track the day of the race. Once you into race week you can send me a message then I'll help you out.Someone lead me down the right path.....

We have a bottle but haven't use it yet. Was going to try it this summer on a set along side another set that we usually use black sand on and see how it feels compared to the black sand that we're used to.I've been reading some old old post. Has anyone found a use for SST5? It reads that it can "lock you down" with superior grip. Clearly that can't be the case if the track is in bad shape. Has anyone found a use for SST5? What product is it similar to?
