Traction Compound

[crazy1]

Will be trying Paragon Ground Effects traction compound on Proline rubber tires. Any concerns, warnings or tips for this or any other traction compound will be apreciated. The track surface is newly resealed black top. The temp will be about 50 deg. after dark.

Clean the tires after every run with motor spray. This is what i do with TQ Blue:

apply the compound about 4 races before your's. Right before you put your body on, wipe off the tires, and carry it out onto the track..

Did you get the TQ mod, or Blue?

I've seen people use both, I've used both.. Can't honestly say which I like better, but I've only used Mod once..

I got the Blue, someone let me try it for a practice run first, & I loved it so that's what I got..:D

I also use TQ blue on my rubber tires... TQ purple (mod) goes on my foams. I have used the orange can TQ with little success, it gummed up my tires and smelled a bit strong:p

Everyone was using TQ Mod on rubber tires, which isn't something I heard of much. They sold out of TQ mod fairly early, while i think they still had TQ Blue at trackside.

I ran mod for the main, had good traction, but that was also on brand new tires.
