List,
Had an odd experience today that may relate remotely to racing on salt.
Driving down one of my dirt "short-cuts" I was forced to cross a mound of
wet dirt left by a road grader. Several miles later I got a severe
unbalanced tire sensation. Turns out that the dirt had all but filled the
inside of one wheel and had been packed there as I drove.
I've seen pretty good salt accumulations on cars, but does everyone follow
a routine of cleaning it all off after every run to prevent things like
this? A couple ounces of salt in the wrong place could really spoil a good
run in a hurry.
