Weather condition question

[Lucky_7]

So I have a good set of yellow vegas, duro 40-42, that handle very well in the heat/dry slick/ dusty track conditions. As fall hits the new evening weather is going to a cool/ dewy/ tacky track. I have a second set of yellows that duro around 32-35, I set these up intentionally for the wetter, cooler weather. My question is, during the week, do I use a the normal low bite mild prep, and then add a more aggressive prep at the track, OR, do I add the more aggressive through the week?

I would only use the more aggressive at the track.

I also have a mid 40’s set and a mid 30’s set of vegas. I still prep my tires throughout the week with the same amount of bite wipes and prep to track conditions at the track. I would almost never use aggressive prep as a weekly wipe!

Don't use aggressive wipes at home unless you want to drop the duro even further....even then, there are very few aggressive preps that can be built into a tire (our Monster Bite is one.) Your typical "aggressive" preps are for PRW applications only.

PRW worked. I had 4 wipes of the non aggressive bite builder in the tires through the week. I added the aggressive right before grid and won this week. It was a rocket. Thanks.
