I enjoy your videos, they are informative. I use the fuel line and measuring cup method, but I like the syringe, I have to try that. One tip I picked up from another video is to not to lay the tire flat when putting the inside prep inside because you don't want any prep touching the sidewalls, and weakening their integrity. Keep the videos coming.

My track rule is Burris slicks I'm planning on running 33s. It's a dry sandy track. It's my first year racing any tire prep tips would be awesome!
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Absolutely. Because I run Track Tac I’m just going to suggest them because it’s what I know. Black sand is a great grip treatment without making the tires too soft. The week coming up to a race maybe two wipes of straight black sand prep on tires at the beginning of the week and let set until race day. At the track I like a 50/50 blend of Acrysol and Black sand on a dry slick track. If you have never done this before the best way to keep and apply is disposable Tupperware sandwich containers with a buffing wax applicator (sponge inside material). If you need a pic of what I’m talking about email me at ben420426@gmail.com and I’ll send u a pic.

Thank you for your videos, Ben. I appreciate the info. How many ounces of SAA should I add internally to brand new Vega yellow tires for 24 hours on the rotisserie?
@kart6t3_ben Жыл бұрын
Your welcome. Depends how aggressive you want to be but Vegas can take a little more prep in my opinion. 3oz right 1.5oz lefts is where I’d start. But that’s me.

You mention cutting the prep at the track with a 50/50 blend of Acrysol - what advantage does that offer over just putting straight prep on?
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Quicker drying time and Acrysol opens the tires pores to take in the prep better. It does reduce the effectiveness of straight prep but Allows slower absorbing preps to be used at track.

Soft med Hard. Yellow are soft. White are medium (developed for asphalt and spec type classes) Blue are hard compound like Maxxis for down south type surfaces.

I was told that odderless mineral spirits works great internally. What are your thoughts?
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Very well could be. I’ve never done it before but much like “breaking down” paint I would assume this would happen to rubber to a degree causing it to get softer and bite the tire up.
@coreymarsh46492 жыл бұрын
Itll need an oil added to it so when the mineral spirits evaporates and pulls the oils out if the tire, it doesn’t make the tire hard

How much internal prep do you use? Is it the same amount for each tire or do you use less on the right side tires?
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Basic amount for me would be 2oz Right side tires, 1oz left side tires. This just adds a bit of bite usually without dropping duro to bad.
@joshuamontalvo34252 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your videos. They’ve helped a bunch. We race in north Florida and everyone down here says you gotta get the duro down in the low 30’s upper 20’s.

what would you recommend as far as amount of prep to put in the tire?
@kart6t3_ben Жыл бұрын
Depends on what u want to do with it. Soft tires 3/4oz right sides (half that for lefts) Harder tires 1/2oz rights (just adds some bite but usually doesn’t soften to much.

How much internal tire prep to use on new tires how many oz
@kart6t3_ben Жыл бұрын
I don’t like to soften from the inside. So my base amount is 2oz right sides. 1oz lefts.

How often do you do the internal prep on maxxis?
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Once prep is in,it’s In. Usually a one and done, just treat from the outside. But! Some preps do work their out after time (or so I’m told). I have Maxxis I havnt run in over a year and I’ll be re treating them internally again to introduce some oils back into them.
@ddeadbeat2 жыл бұрын
why do people prep the inside of the tire?
@kart6t3_ben2 жыл бұрын
Depending on condition it helps the tire though the race cycle, and/or changes the overall durometer of the tire. For instance I have Vega yellows that duro 50 new that I’ve treated inside and out now duro 25/30 much softer for cold wet tracks.
