Hello, I am currently racing in Canada, on a freshly laid indoor tarmac track.

Two questions I need answering:
- Does anyone have an extremely low grip set-up for the Xray T3?
- Does anyone know any ways of improving grip on low traction tarmac?...If sugar water, how much sugar and water shall I use?


Thanks

one other alternative to sugar water is to use really cheap brand cola( bonus is has more sugar content then real coke and cheaper) this is easy as there is not mixing required. but being indoor it may take longer to dry!! (also cordial may be another option)

but using sugar water, just keep mixing sugar in until it hits it saturation point, but be careful with this as if your spraying it on (i assume) when the water starts to cool it will crystallize and could clog the nozzle. so you will contently need to make sure the water is hot enough.

with how much to put down, its a matter of feel, do the whole track( or what ever area your doing) when it drys do another cover over that, keep going until your happy with grip.

we did this to our track at a major event, the feedback was "the track had lots of grip and one of the cleanest surfaces they had seen in a while" so it must work.

hope that helps you out.

have a setup for t2 but not t3 for low traction, bumpy, technical, outdoors, asphalt and dusty
