Default 1 or 2 week ban on oil based additive

Hi all

What do people think to banning oil based additives for a week or two as a trial to see if it repairs the track.

This is something they are doing at major events. Heard someone saying the carpet at a major event was ruined after just the first round so it was suggested to ban additive for next rounds to improve the grip.

Looking at the state of the track Friday I think we possibly may need to do the same. This was actually baldy seniors idea but I agree. I believe a few others were in agreement too.

Btw this hasn't been a problem before as we haven't had so many people running foams (via supastox etc) and the CS additive used on them.

A few of us have stopped running additive and not noticed any loss in grip.
But ofcourse, we don't need to do this if people object. I personally believe it will improve grip. And it will be an interesting test.

Who's in?
