All my friends literally stopped me from going out again telling me it was way too scary for them to even watch.

After the track on the street in high boost i could lay down 2nd and on. LACR is closing, so they dont even bother prepping, the track was like a ice skating rink (much worse then even street traction).
This doesn't surprise me. Traction is and always will be an issue for 1KHP cars. Sounds fun as hell though.

It was honestly all the track, it was as if it was sandy, windy and wet. The street had much more traction even in high boost.
