I made a 275/40/17 Hoosier DR do work on the street. I actually think I would 60' better than the track. Since the hoosier has the softest sidewall of any DR and is an all glass corded tire you can air it down to around 15psi on the street and dead hook. My vette was making 438rwhp, stock suspension. I won a hat race on the street where you could only burn out in something you could drink. They even dead hooked using Mtn. Dew. By far my favorite tire. I have since retired from the street but I still will only run a Hoosier DR.
