Question VHT Traction compound

1. Has anyone used this on street tires for a drag race on the L?
If so, was there a noticeable traction increase?

2. Where can I buy some?


Thanks.

VHT works really good for the street. Some tracks use VHT to make the track stick better too.

Just lay a little on the ground in front of the tires and roll into it and do a brake TRQ for a about 10 seconds and check to see what its like. Keep doing it until your happy.

For a quick note, when your street racing. Pepsi or coke works really good for getting your tires sticky too!

Also I used to use VHT on my supercharger belt so it wouldn't slip as much, that worked!

VHT is great!! If you use it be careful not to get it all over your body, its real sticky!!!

If you use the ET-Streets or Quick Times anything liquid will make them stick. Beer burnouts work great not that I would know about street racing or anything...
