I think at this time it's still in experimental mode and because this forum doesn't get to all the members, that we can't lay down a 100% ban of additives on either TC or Stox from this Friday, we don't want to be upsetting people on the night.
I think come Friday night it needs to be put across to the members what has been discussed here and that we would like to try this experiment. Of which we would Prefer members to try racing without additives for a couple of weeks. As this is only an experiment we don't want to alienate members that are against the idea, but looking at the feedback from this thread, I feel most will be happy to follow suit.
Also remember this is only an experiment and although some Stox drivers have found the track drivable without additive. This may not be the case a few weeks down the road and if car control becomes questioned and accidents start to rise, then we would need to rethink.
An ideal situation would be to see a total ban as the carpet is full of additive of which the foams will be picking up along with any fresh that is been put down. But I think this is impossible to enforce on such short notice.
Please note I'm putting this across as a Stox racer and not a TC driver and I think most Stox drivers will be willing to give it a try.
Markygia has put his concerns across for TC, which brings it's own issues running rubber tyres and I quite understand and don't have an answer for this, sorry. Also what is the position with pan cars, I know there are only a couple but they should be able to have their say as well.
