You need a well prepped or recently prepped track or the track to improve with faster slick tyred cars putting down more rubber on the surface. I've always found calder to have way more grip than Heathcote, yet others say otherwise

Thanks for your speedy reply to the matter and I understand all the issues faced by your people in ardueous conditions and varying levels of car prep ie:oil leaks,sand & whatever else a car would emit in these conditions.



I did notice the guys spraying the track with ET from time to time which was probably adding to the problem due to the fact as you mentioned no heat in the track. Once again I am by no means having a shot at anybody more expressing my slight disappointment at the grip levels which I guess affected me in trying to run an new PB and could not do so.



I am sure once the new season starts in September we will see the track back to its good ol self and producing some exciting et’s.



Regards
