why did they water the track????

''THE WATER TANKER. Having read various comments on forums regarding the use of the water tanker at aghadowey I have an idea which I would like to put out for consultation and comments. Firstly a bit of background on why it is being used, and why it may be a necessary evil.

Portlaoise Drift- Cancelled due to noise
Balbriggan M1 Drift -Cancelled due to noise
Mondello Drift Practise- Still going strong (Using Tanker to wet track)

The Complexities of setting up a drift practise involves local council approval. It is not just a matter of turning up at the track and doing what you please. My proposal for wetting the track is as follows. (Oldskooler Kinda Touched on it).

First half hour session is wet, with a choice given to drivers if they want to drift our sit out. Hopefully after the wet session the track should be well on its way to drying out with a bit more grip for the next half hour dry session. First session after lunch will be dry session having allowed the track almost an hour of drying. (The wet session will see the whole track being wet not just the corners)''
