👉 The track fluid, often referred to as the "glide" or "ride" fluid in automotive contexts, is a specialized lubricant applied to the moving parts of an engine's crankshaft and camshaft bearings. It reduces friction between these components and the surrounding metal surfaces, ensuring smooth operation and minimizing wear over time. The fluid is typically a low-viscosity oil with additives designed to maintain its properties under varying temperatures and pressures, enhancing engine efficiency and longevity. When the engine is running, the fluid forms a thin film that separates the moving parts, allowing them to glide effortlessly against each other while still receiving necessary lubrication.
