Default Burnout question

Guys, I would like to get some ideas from you. I am planning on taking my 68 out to the races this weekend. Last time I did so 2 yr ago I had great difficulty removing the built up burnout rubber from the lower quarter panel. Are there any tricks of the trade or products that make this removal easyier and reduce risk of paint damage?
(Laq finish)

Thanks
Jim

They also make a clear plastic protector that fits the shape of the 1/4 panel.
I know they make them for Mid-Year Vettes... I would think Camaros too?

PAM cooking spray works. Spray a few times before racing letting dry between each spray
