Niftech.
Just put in on 5-10 minutes before you heat and you are ready to go. Don't need to wipe anything off. Doesn't leave a slimey feel to your tires. Don't even need to take a couple of laps to "scrub" off the excess. Very consistant from begining of run to end of run. And.....no wintergreen smell.

Niftech is the best gound effects compound you can buy

I race on asphlat, and I have never found a reason to spend money on traction compounds. I simply wipe the tires down with Orange Clean a little before a race and let it dry.

with the tire cleaner if you use it like the directions say it makes the tires really sticky. the apply the traction compound and man look out. i haven't tried red dot yet but I'll keep it in mind

I have used buggy grip 1 with the most succes this past year in the parking lot. The tires had perfect grip on the first corner and it did not speed up my tire wear at all. I got this tip from some guys on the XXXS forum back in mid summer who run in Cali.

The absolute BEST rubber tire additive I've found is to take a rag and very carefully dab the oil off the top of a pepperoni pizza and gently massage it into the tire. Wipe it off and GO!!!
