You should be fine on a DR with a stall. I've left at 3,200rpm on a 150rwhp shot no problem. Probrably wouldn't last to long doing that every run though. There are plenty of guys that have run in the 10.50 range with the stock 10 bolt.

I know this might be the wrong section but I think you guys know best when it comes to this. I will be running a 100 shot and was wondering what is a good tire I car get some hook from on my stock rear without killing it .

Depends on how your track prep is. With ok track prep I've had good luck with my Nitto drag radials, on street night when there is little prep they don't work that great. I'm switcing to an M/T DR but those aren't really for a daily driver.

The MT DRs are no joke! I love mine but after about 6 1.50 60's launches my 10 bolt started to wine.

Yeah, I'm expecting that. I'm hoping to try and keep my 60's in the 1.60 range. No more launching on the nitrous for me....well, except for the small dry 50 shot I'm adding.
