Post your best 60 ft on BFG Drag Radials!
I found a good deal on some 255/50/16's and was wondering what kind of 60 ft's you guys have been getting out of them. My car is a 98 all bolt on car with a tp4400. I know it will be a challenge for them to hook but i have seen some guys run pretty fast with them. Thanks.

You guy needs need to come run in California, you're 60' time would be embarrassing, I cut 1.98 at Carlsbad on Toyo Drag Radials 255/50/16 at 15 psi. Most people on ET Streets run 1.8.-1.9 here. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">

I witnessed a 1.69 in BrandonB's '02 Formula on Saturday. His only mods are: BFG DR's, Vigilante 3200, lid & ported MAF. Makes me want an automatic!

Thanks for all of the replies. So give me your opinion, should i go ahead and buy the bfg's since it would be the cheapest and try them vs my tp4400 3.42 setup? Track prep around here can be good at times so i think i might just give em a shot. All i want is a low 12 second car right now anyway. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

1.59! I cut a 1.59 on 275-50-15 BFG drag radials. The ones with the wide center patch of rubber. These are on 15x8 draglites. Tire pressure at 12.5psi. This was a one time thing. I didn't get a full run in on that one because the hood latch popped loose on the launch. Best its done previous to that was 1.70s. Don't know why it hooked so well then, but it did.
