FWIW if you go to the drag strip and race any sort of street car class the tire rule usually just states it needs to a DOT stamp.

I know right, who would actually want to be able to hook from a dig or slow roll on the street? Everyone knows real races are from 60mph rolls!

Lambos have AWD, therefore AWD = race car. By extension, AWD on DRs=top fuel dragster.

Your argument is invalid.
