You can't be serious? That track had more bite in it than it's had in years at feature time. Traction control wouldn't have helped at all on Friday.

I doubt Murdick uses it, besides, there really wouldn't be much of an advantage on the conditions they had last Friday.

I know it's tough to tech for, most tracks don't seem to give a damn. I read were Williams Grove is looking for it and if you're caught, it's a years suspension, forfeiture of that nights winnings, plus a payment of a fine matching whatever you won that night to get reinstated.
From what I understand and have heard about it, it can help some if you're already really close on set-up and know what you're doing as a driver on a slick track. Make the track tacky like it should be, and it doesn't matter as much.

Meh. It will only really help if the setup is pretty much dead on and you have the right gear in the car. Traction control won't take a car that is out to lunch and suddenly make it competitive.
It's usage isn't really as rampant as people would like to think. There are many drivers that have tried it and hated it/thought it was useless.
