    You use track tac prep right? If so, you should give Curtis Polzceck and Xtreme Speed a try. I used to run the track tac stuff and we were ok. We switched to xtreme speed and I’ve been winning almost everytime I hit the racetrack. One of his customers won Semi Pro at daytona in 2022. Finished p4 in clone medium at daytona this year. Curtis is a nice guy to and I think you’d be a little better with his stuff. Obviously you don’t have to but I’m just suggesting it.

    • @DegenerateGarage
      @DegenerateGarage  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm giving Austin Bankers prep a shot. I've heard a lot of good things and I found a local rep that has been helping me all week. I'm in the same boat on the track tac, it's got me this far but I feel like I need something a little more consistent in my program.

    You can win it on the first lap the tires got to have time to start working that’s way it was push on the start and jump out on the outside on the start of the race isn’t good ether keep it on the inside tell the karts get moving u jump on the outside to try to pass on the start I can do that because on those guys behind are going to fly rite by u watch on this pro racer they don’t start making the moves tell about 5 to go

    With tracks as slick and dusty as this dont be afraid to wipe bite early in the week and let it cure its much better for these track conditions compared to wiping a medium or aggressive same day or night of. This track looks like radiator springs before lightning learned to take his time lol.

    To add - maybe give Austin Banker a call. He's from what I have heard a great tire prep man and gives great support. I don't know him as he raced against my son when we raced. And, I'm not endorsing, but he is always up front all over the country. Also someone mentioned stagger below. What stagger are you set at? It definitely may help some with that push I see you having.

    • @DegenerateGarage
      @DegenerateGarage  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I actually just started with the Bubba prep this week! Not enough stagger that's for sure, I just spent the evening shrinking my lefts. More stagger should solve a lot of my push in both karts.
