Stop Shining up your tires before an event!
Just noted that waaaay too many cars came to the last autocrosses with tire shine all over them. Its all well and good for show, and i have to admit that it looks good... but when you are driving on it... not so great. That shit is slick as hell..
Just common sense, but I figured I'd throw it out there...

I dont Really see how tire shine would affect traction unless you spray the whole tire and not just the sidewall..
