Default Dr. Pepper and 3M adhesive spray for traction???

Ok call me crazy but I went to a private event in an open long street in a private ranch well anyways it was trucks and cars all on drag radials and what I saw was just crazy guys opening cans of Dr. Pepper and using them as track bite and another guy using 3M adhesive praying in front of the rears after his burnout and a few doing the same with track bite anybody try this before or are they just clowning around????

I have heard of the Dr Pepper before on other forums where street racing discussions are allowed.

Pour some on the ground then walk on it after about 15 minutes, or after heating it.
