I was running Double Pink fronts & Soft Pink rears straight out of the box from Contact. For sauce I tried SXT and black can Paragon, and the Paragon was substantially better.
I'm wondering what brands/compounds I should look into that may work better for this surface? Also I'm struggling to follow both CRC and BSR's color coding as it doesn't match what is on their website. So if anyone could layout the hardness progression with rubber type that would be awesome.
You might want to hunt around in your dad’s stuff for a Parma speed 8 HD body. My HD T-bar car with that high down force body was the decent 3-4 years ago when the traction was pathetic at CH.
