i've been good, just keepin busy with my racing (season just ended 
) and finishing school this fall among other stuff.
the tires are great for me, i hit the canyons regularly and the track periodically (road course), and have a Tahoe for DD duties now. with DD duties and track time, i dont see them getting more then 10k miles a set (if that), they're DOT approved R-compound tires with a 100 tread wear...but they're much cheaper then a lot of other street tires
no, they wouldn't be good for drag racing, the side wall is WAY too stiff. road racing tires are best with rigid sidewalls bc the driver has more control of the car when the rear is breaking loose, and soft side wall benefits drag racers because it allows the tires to flex some allowing to grip more for launch traction

so i got tuned last night
runs like a raped ape now
if i was running regular street tires, i wouldn't be going too far 
the NT-01s are really helping A LOT to keep the power to the ground. i'll try and get a vid today and probably get dynoed in a week or 2
oh, injector duty cycle is at 96.87% at 26* timing
guess its time for some injectors and i think cats will be going back in to quite the car down a lil
