I personally drill and tap in aluminum drives to set my tack strip in basement or over concrete scenarios. There are adapters and solid square tungsten carbide tips that do not cost an arm and a leg. You would simple either replace the steel concrete nails that come pre-affixed to concrete tack strip if you are not able to drive them yourself, or use the aluminum drives as backups to ensure proper hold. I do not like to wait to stretch in my carpet, and much prefer the solidity that backing up with drives provide. I have never had a wall stretch fail with this method while I have had and seen tack strip fail with gluing. Nothing sucks worse that poling a stretch off a wall and feeling it give way due to residue, paint, or simply having the glue not provide adequate hold requiring you to go back to step one.
