You may actually bog the motor on the ET streets and go slower, I'd go MT Drags, i cut 1.54's on em they hook, could have done better but they got stolen!

The ET street is a good tire for the track, if you are planning on driving on the alot stay with a drag radial, I like the nitto's for DD duty
Same tire here. They're so great for a track tire. I would be afraid to drive them on the street much. I've done consistent 1.6's but I have terrible reaction lol. With these tires I have warped an axle shaft, lost a clutch (reason for auto swap), and broke a tailshat housing! When M6, I could dump the clutch at 5500 rpm and they would literally put my head in the seat.

I forgot to add that when I swapped in the Moser 9", the guy that did it used U-bolts for the sway bar and them SOBs are bent beyond belief. If I ever want to get the sway bar off, I would have to cut the U-bolts off. That's how hard I'm hooking.
