Racer's tape is high tack/high strength used to keep broken racecars from coming apart at high speed. The low tack stuff I think is gaffer's tape which is designed to come off without leaving any marks.

I don't know what to do with the roll of gooey stuff. I really can't think of any good use for it.
The next time you smack someone in a race and your front bumper is dragging on the ground or flopping around you'll know what to use it for. Unlike in an HPDE, during a race you don't stop just because you bent it.

Orange FTW

Actually, one product was labeled "racer's tape" and the other was labeled "racing tape". I don't remember which was which, but they were easy to tell apart. The stuff I like does seem to be more commonly called gaffer's tape.
