This looks pretty good, but they got any scents other than cherry?
Also has anyone tried this stuff yet?

I am going to mount a pump on my rig with nozzles over each wheel, come up to an obstacle... press a button... spray down the tires and go.

I would love to see a review on this stuff... traction is the key in any driving.

Nope...You couldn't be more Wrong. They're more of a Softener with a Slight Tacky Feeling for added Traction. The more you spray on the Stickier it gets. You control it. A little goes a long ways. It's unlike anything you have tried before. Also the Krawler Tape won't wash off by just driving through Water holes either.

And the Cherry Smell. Well it smells Nice. I can also do different Scents later down the road. If thats a big deal..... Vanilla, Citrus and even Bubble Gum...

Besides Deisel, we tried the Punk club bathroom scent, let's just say it was a bit to musty.

Nice idea, but I don't know about this cherry smell. Most of the stuff that is supposed to smell like cherry smells.... just bad. Can you make it smell like a freshly opened AX-10 box?

Almost every Tire Spray product only offers Softener or Sticky Spray. But never in one bottle. For use Crawlers. Some times Sticky is good, sometimes it could be bad. This Krawler Tape is a special Blend of liquids that Soften the Rubber for a Better grip on the rocks. But it also has a Tacky feel to help grip even better. But not to much to pick up loose dirt. A little goes a long ways. The more layers you spray on the stickier it gets. So a mist from about 6in is all you need. If you will be running in and out of sand a lot. I would Clean the Tires with a brush and the Krawler Tire Prep. Let that Dry, then Mist on the Krawler Tape from 8in away. Sand is a Tricky thing. Hell new Mashers with Zero Treatment will pick up sand. Like anything else. This won't be the perfect thing for every course. But many places it will work like a Charm.

My guess is that like most tire sauce, and tricks like Simple Green, the tires will be slippery until the sauce soaks in and the tires dry.

I'd love to see a comparison test on these products vs the traditional tricks you see at the race track.

Well all this guessing isn't really going to help ya out. Only way is to buy it and try it. And yes it has to dry and soak in. How less are you going to get the rubber to soften up. You have to let it do it's job.
