Default Mud Proffing Your Bike

I have a cross country race on Saturday, it is looking like to be a real mudder. It has been raining since this afternoon and supposed to continue through the weekend. The facility is know for having heavy clay, part of the course will be ran on the AMA National Hangtown Motocross track which has sand and rice hulls mixed in with the clay.

I have compelted the following:
1. Panty hose over my radiator shrouds
2. Foam between the engine cases and skid plate.
3. Re-routed vent hoses.

I have heard from a late model dirt track racers that a light coating of vegtable oil will keep clay from sticking to the underside or inside the fenders? Anyone ever tried this? Will WD40 do the same thing? Pam cooking spray?

As for goggles, tear off or roll off's?

I wish I had a pair of those old High Point Elephant Ears hand protectors.

What am I missing? Looking for input.

Thanks
