Hi all, can some some give me some help with tyre additives, I have got back inot racing and have a mardave V12, running really well now but have been recommended to use tyre additives to gain grip in the corners.

Can anyone recommend any?

Carpet or Asphalt? Indoors or out? Any restrictions on odor?

I've never heard of what you linked to but here in the U.S., most racers use Corally's Jack the Gripper if odorless is required and good old Paragon if you're allowed to be a bit more odorfull.

During the ETS and last club race i used corally CarpetJack. It gave me more traction then jack the gripper and is also odorless. The tires also get softer so for consistency sake better run every heat and final a different set of tires. (3 heats and 2 finals is 5 sets of tires). In the end it saves you money as the wear is way less then when driving one set of tires for the whole day. (one set of tires get softer after every run, so les consistent and more prone to wear).

Yes.

Use Coleman fuel.

Cleans and grips very well.
Very little odor.

This is the same as Mudslide tire cleaner.
