Default Very confusing

This whole thread is very confusing to me. Maybe its because I've been racing for 30 years and tire sauce has ALWAYS been a given around here?
The only major controversy was the banning of Wintergreen based sauce on indoor tracks - and that's up to the track operator.
Or is this some new kind of treatment that didn't exist before?

Is Suntan lotion banned too? Because I slather that stuff all over my arms and I'm sure some "accidentally" gets on my tires.

I understand banning very dangerous chemicals but I just don't get how you would even begin to police a rule that made everything illegal.

And like lots of rules, it sounds like it would make things more expensive in the long run. And get us back to the days of "special" foam that only certain team drivers can get their hands on.

Not to mention no way to freshen up old tires.

Am is missing something here?
