Packing Graphite

Post by Black Fox »

Gents

I came across a web site that sells a tool for packing graphite into your wheels. If you're running in a race where you're not allowed to lube your car between races. They claim packing the axle whole in the wheel will make the graphite last longer, thus allowing your car to run faster for a longer period of time. Just curious if anyone has used this?

Here's a video of the product.

plug "packing graphite" in search box (upper right corner of page). Produces 5 pages of "matches", and many bear on question.
