It's traction compound plus the track has a "scrapper" that make the lanes super smooth and shiny. There's no grease out the otherwise they would be sliding at the hit. A lot of times it's tire shake on one wheel which loses grip and the other tire hooks up and causes the violent turn into the wall. One had a tire failure. Lots if great cars damaged.

@@TheUprightLuthier-1959 Most of these wrecks are actually caused by insane tire shake. You can see it in some of the shots, they're shaking so violently that the tires are folding with overlap. The ones where people are losing traction off the line is a setup error, not a track error, as in most cases the car in the other lane hooks perfectly fine. If the tire pressures are too high or suspension has no travel in the rear or front, this can quite often cause the tires to simply not bite.
@TheUprightLuthier-19592 жыл бұрын
@@Nitedontdie So you think the tire shake is caused by insanity. Kewl. Nothing you saw contradicts my conclusion. Your conclusions is: tracks are perfect, drivers are all beginners.
