TIRES??
So, IFMAR has declared you can use additives to the tires however they will squeeze the tires and if anything comes out of them you can't use them...WOW. That's kickin' the door wide open
This will be interesting to find out what people are chosing as their secret sauce.

The funny thing is that here in Europe we may not use tire additives and do not spray the tracks and overseas it is just a normal routine.
On REDRC now a story that some countries will withdraw from the WC if they do not stop s[raying alcohol on the tires.

Collari and a lot of others seem to be furious.
They say they've prepared for a WC w/o tire additives and won't have any of this.
This could get bad...

They sauce because they want more traction than everyone else, not because traction is low.
What I heard is that Pietsch, Hara, and the Xray team were caught with sauced tires. I think they should let everyone sauce with a control additive. Calibrate the "sniffing" machine to that additive, and if anybody is using a different one, disqulify them.

The whole issue is because the sniffer is broken. This saucing issue seems to be about nothing, They should just permit it since it's not in the IFMAR rules and the Host never mentioned it prior to the event. Another issue with the saucing is some people are going out on 2nd run tires which picks up what ever contaminant the track has.
