Here's the video for those who are interested:

I like the idea, but I do have questions, the major one being that if the oil flows back into the track, what's to keep it from flowing all over the lane? What kind of effect does it have after being placed and left down for several hours? Does the pattern eventually end up flattening out? Does it flow down into the backend?
These are very simple questions, I'd HAVE to think they addressed these, I AM curious though. Be curious to see if they start using it at Nationals next year too. If the pattern really doesn't break down much if any, that would really change the dynamic . .

The oil may be great, and we certainly need some kind of conditioner that breaks down slower given that we are pretty much stuck with the modern high friction balls. Not sure I buy the marketing hype of why it works, assuming it does work. The flow back thing doesn't quite make sense. Also, it doesn't talk about the overall volume that would be applied. I have a feeling that the recommended volumes might be much higher.

this is interesting. i would like to see how this stuff transitions compared to the ICE oil because i dont see very much transition to that oil either
