Probably could have posted this in the tire section but I think I can get better and faster answers here.

With that said, is it ok to street drive on these tires? I live 30-40 minutes from the track and want to know if I will have problems driving to the track tomorrow night.

Thanks

I drive the Formula to the track with my M/T Sportsman Pros on (about 25-30 minutes each way), and they work fine. Obviously keep in mind they are a tad softer so they will cause the back end to be a little "mushy" compared to a regular radial, and depending on the roads you are using the soft rubber could be torn up a little (rough roads versus smooth blacktop).

Any tire you street drive with will be compromised at the track depending on your set up.
Should be fine on the street though

Ok thanks I live in Keystone Heights and I am going to Gainesville Raceway. Roads are pretty good along the way. And probably getting very close to needing new track tires.

Next question, how many lbs should I run them at on the street? At the track I usually run them at 15 lbs.

Tektrans, what do you mean "compromised"?

Hoping to get a NPB, probably not going to happen though weather is hot.

Sportsman Pro DOT fronts is all I ran on the front of cars for the last five years... For the fronts I ran them at 30+ psi I think... whatever they reccomend.

For rear drag radials I ran them at 14-17psi cold at the track but would air them up to 25-35 for the street.

This is what I run mine at as well.

Thanks guys.

I think I burnt them up last night got close to 40 passes my self and they had a few on them when I got them. 60' times were down a tenth but 1/4 times only by .05. Had fun though.

I have close to 250 runs on mine, but my car is much slower, and softer on the initial hit Can't wait to get a set of ET Street radials when they are done....

I will try to upload a pic of them.

How far can you take them down? I also heat the pretty good too, mine are only 26x9.50. I tried short burn outs and I spun. I Love when she dead hooks.
