Come on guys... I figured with enough of you having raced before at
least one of you would know the fast easy way to get that out.
1.)Go to the local supermarket and pick up ~10-15lbs of dry ice or
dry ice pellets.
2.) Put them on the floor over the sound deadning in moderatly small
areas (~2 square feet at a time).
3.)Wait about 2 minutes and then hit with either a decent hammer or a
mallet (it should lift slightly and then just scrape it loose with
either the back of the hammer or a screwdriver) expect about 3"X6"
pieces.
4.)Enjoy!
It will pop off the floor leaving a nice shiny patch of primer
underneath. There will still be small spots where there are very thin
amounts left on, Due to not getting cold enough. I just used a wire
brush on a drill to get those areas.
