I did that the first time I raced, but yeah the track surface was extremely slippery, even more so than on a normal road.. prepped for drag slicks. I couldnt get boost on it until I was well out near half track so (100m) 1/8th mile, otherwise theyd just wheel spin. Pump fuel and E/T drag slicks would be the go for starters..
