:lol: I remember when MEK was used, not a firestorm, but great traction..

And I don't think that VW was stock................

That's what I remember. I don't think I have ever seen gas used until this video

Yes gas was used but really just for show. I would say raw gas on early compound slicks probably would soften them. After bleach came rosin also, then after that, just prep the track surface.

Being the driver in that vintage front engine dragster, that had to be wild being engulfed in flames using gas.

My VW van would need grease on the tires to do a burnout with only 44 horsepower !

Use just old engine oil on the low, low HP cars I had.
