It does clean down to a hard clay surface. Eventually. In small areas.

I used Schumacher Green Mini Spike fronts and Yellow Mini Spikes on the rear. Worked well enough, but I think if you could find a tyre that has slightly bigger spikes with slightly bigger gaps between the spikes it would work a treat. I don't think the compound is all that important as long as they're kinda softish. Schumacher full spikes are too far the other way.

Too much grip could be a problem too as a lot of cars, especially the Nitros, were grip rolling violently at the end of the straight.

So, in the mean time Mini Spikes are tried and tested..
