Default Hoosier QTP's or M&H Cheater Slick

I am looking for a 26x15 DOT slick that I can drive 80 miles to the track and back.
I have narrowed it down to Hoosier QTP 26x11.5x15 or M&H Cheater Slick 26x11.5x15?
This will be me first slick tire and in the future I may upgrade to an MT Drag.
What tire do think will hook better on a M6 H/C car with 4:11?
Has anyone had experience with both of these tires?

i don't know about the M&H's, but myself and a few friends switched from M/T over to the QTP's and will never go back. In our cases, in 6speed cars, they were more consistant and stuck better then an e.t. street. Again, in OUR case since every car's setup is different. He was running a 27" and I was running a 28"

i was cutting mid 1.4's before it sheered my 7/16" studs off the axle with my 28x11.5x15 QTP's. I was running them at 17psi, no tubes, launching at about 6000rpm. my buddy was in the 1.5's with his combo(just h/c vs. my 382AB). Soft launching my car was still high 1.5's.
