    Heck ive seen everything from mulch,calcium chloride to laundry detergents used to prep a track before...
    If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!

      I live in Iowa and have no interest in going to Boone. JMHO

              Thats cool Plunks its not for everyone... Another one that does an awesome job of farming a good racing surface which someone pointed out above is Knoxville... I have been there to the sprint car nationals a few times and it always had a good racing surface each time... The latemodel nationals are on my to do list as well..

                    Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of all sorts of racing but they just need to make it the Boone latemodel & Modified Nationals... They would still fill a week up with racing with just those 2 classes

                      A good racetrack is usually prepped all week but some think they can show up a few hours before race time and sprinkle some water on and it will be good. Most the time that's doesn't work out so well.
