Default Hoosier Tires

Hey all,
Is anybody out there running a set of Hoosier Quick Time Pro DOTs or Drag slicks? I hear these things are about as sticky as they get. And they just released a 16" tire so, now you can run them on stock wheels.

Tell me what are your opinions of these tires?

I know there is a GP going for them from Billingsly racing, and there prices look pretty good.

Thoughts?

I highly recommend the Hoosiers. I'm running the 26x9x15 slicks on my SS, and they're great. I used to run a Firestone 12.2" slick on my '67 Chevy II, and my 60' times were consistently in the 1.50 range. I swapped the tires out for a set of 11.5" Hoosiers, and my 60' times dropped to an average of 1.47 with a best of 1.44. I'd definitely recommend them!
