fall off on a track and you'll hurt yourself
fall of on road and you could kill yourself
i know people who have used tape, i never have. glue may be messy and a bit more time consuming but i reckon it's safer and more secure. i think people use tape as they don't know how to properly glue a tyre/rim. and cornering on a track doesn't have as much force as the track has banking/camber, which roads don't have. roll-off is not nice.
