Now that we're getting down to the nitty-gritty, how are people going to deal with the synthetic to dirt angle? Some commentators have opined that while form doesn't translate dirt to junk, it works just fine vice versa.

If this is true, throw out bad performances by usual dirt runners, like Pyro, who have tried the stuff (assuming you don't think there's other reasons for the anomalous stinker), and handicap the junk runners as if they were going to run the same on dirt.

Or, is it a mistake to treat the subject monolithically? Maybe there's a big difference among different synthetic surfaces at different tracks, in terms of how form transfers.
