Got out to the track with the M/T Radials......Those mothers HOOK!!! Pulled a 1.60 wheels up 60 ft time last night. And that's at Moroso. Moroso isn't the best hooking track most of the time. They would hook, pull the front tires then unload and spin just a bit, but not much. Best hooking tire on the street and the track that I've ever had.
PM'd gator about these tires and he talked me into them even though I didn't think they'd hold the 4000converter/3.73 combo at Moroso.
Thanks Gator!!

1.4 60' are no problem on the radials (auto cars)

I think they specifically mention that this tire is recommended for DRY pavement only. I imagine they are about the worst tire you could possibly have (other than a complete slick) in a heavy rain driven on the street...
