Just so I understand completely.....clean the tires with brake cleaner after every run. Then sauce them 5 min before the race and do a burnout on the carpet to get the excess sauce off them.
Am I leaving anything out? I've only used sauce on VTA tires. Never used brake cleaner on them. it took a race day or two before new vta tires would wear in.
Also, when I do sauce the front tires in USGT, am I only saucing the inner half of the tread or doing the entire tread across?
no, that is exactly what I do.
on usgt, I usually do about a quarter of an inch on the inside. On vta, I do the inside first two tread.
