RE: red clay track and car cleaning
All depends if I am doing a major service or a quick cleaning before the next round of racing whether I take anything off. I use either denatured alcohol or Wild Cat extreme cleaner mist it down hit the big build up with a tooth brush mist it down again and blow it off with compressed air.
Then every couple of months if I am racing a lot I take it totally apart and give it a very good cleaning and services. Sorry to say Georgia red clay stains and you will never get your car to look new again if you drive it.
Savannah has a great track a great group of racers!!!!!!!!!!

RE: red clay track and car cleaning
thanks 46u, yes the georgia red clay is very tough to clean.......otherwise,yes,we have a great track! wish there more around here,but there are not.... It seems like it takes me more time to clean the car than I actually spend on run time.... what is the advantage of red clay? why couldn't they use the course savannah river sand dirt that has the same compaction? would love to see that track resurfaced.....are you coming to the big race on the 10th ?

RE: red clay track and car cleaning
Sorry to say I have not raced in all most 8 months. Matter of fact my last race was in Savannah. I wish Savannah was closer as it is my favorite track in Georgia. Sorry to say the closes track to me is 75 miles one direction and Savannah is 175 miles one way. I would love to be there on the 10th but not sure I will be able to.
Sorry to say nothing packs or has the traction as good old Georgia Red Clay.
