oh, it takes "ages" to dry up.
Vacum first, then spray a thin layer of clean water on it. Just to bind some shit up.
Then wait 30 min and vacum again.
You can do this a couple of times for a new track. You can also use a carpet cleaner.
When it's all dried up and vacumed, then you just run as much as you possibly can on the track without trying to beat your record.
Just many laps to lay some rubber on the track.
Remember to cool down the electronics and motor, so maybe just 20-25 min stints and a charging break before doing another 20-25 min stint.
Since it's a new track, it will take "some" laps to be good. Back in the day, our tracks got WAY BETTER after 2000 laps. So an "old" track often has better grip than a new track. So invite all your friends and drive the hell out of it in the start....
But, washing it is still much better than driving on industrial and shipping dust.... :-D
