I rebuilt my slow driver's window with the Hugo kit and lubed the regulator gears and cables with lithium grease. Upon reinstallation, the window is still slow. I noticed that when the window is fully raised and the regulator is removed, it does not come crashing down. It stays in the raised position from friction for a few seconds, slowly creeps down a couple inches, and then falls into the door. This will take about 15 seconds. Does that mean the tracks aren't lubed enough? It takes quite a bit of effort to mimic what the regulator is doing, raising the unsupported window myself.
I smeared some grease onto the tracks with my finger, however I was only able to cover a small section since I didn't have them pulled out of the door. I figured using the window would distribute the grease along the entire track. I didn't want to pull them out and clean the old grease because I don't want to mess with re-aligning them.
