Re: Who drives around permanently on

most people I know that have tried to drive and race on et streets get about 100 passes and 6-7 months from them. This depends on the burn out and how much you drive the car too. Sportsman pros are a little better for mileage and racing, but I wouldn't recommend them for anything quicker than high 11s, not as soft on the sidewall but more tread than et streets and MUCH better in the rain!
