You talking about that red stuff with which you had to tear off the tire and re-glue every season. That's OK if you have a mechanic. I say good riddance to that stuff. Vittoria Mastic was a god-send. In years of racing, the only time I've ever had to remount a tire, is when it's worn out or flat. And getting em off, even after several years is almost impossible. Although, I do check em before a criterium or road race with technical downhills.
