ooohhhh slicks. Think I'm going to try the ET Drag Radials, their 28x13's are what I need. I tried the Hoosier QT Pros on the street and they wore down before I ever had a chance to get to the track, they are soft and sticky, way more than ET Streets thats for sure. I have ET Drags on their now but they suck without tubes and I want something with a little baby rain groove for the street.

No more 1/2 throttle excuses then.. ***** out this time 'eh?

PS if you can cancel that order I'd go for the M/T DR's over the ET Streets. General consensus, including mine.. is that the DR is a better tire.

They are already on the way. I'll try them out and see what they can do, a friend of mine hooks like a champ on the ones I ordered..his car hooks up.

I was looking for the DR's, but they were expensive..I'm working with a lim ited budget now..lol

I think they will look sweet on the Z06 Rims..
