Question What race only tire are you running

Post up your suspension mods, HP, and weight. N/A, Turbo or Nitrous.
What tire works best for you and what size are you running.
How many different tires have you ran and why did you change.

LS1 346 N/A race car. I have every suspension mod "Madman tuned". Race weight of 3185 Best time 10.29@129 mph with a 1.32 60ft.

Currently we are running a set of 29.5x10.5x15 M/T slicks. Most of the time we run 30x10.5x15 slick. Goodyears & Hoosiers. Reason for changing "PRICE"!!!

Which ever set we cant get a better deal on, is the set we race. During our race season, we go through 4 set of slicks.

I run the Hoosier 28x10-15 DO5 Drag slick. It's the best I have found for the size, but a bit pricey in comparison to some of the others.

I've got a 28x10.5W on the car now and have a 325 M/T drag radial as well. ET Fronts up front all the time.

Used to roll on 28" drag radials and ET Streets. Good setup for the street w/ the Procharger.
