Drag radials do help a lot, especially since the nights here have been 30-40 degree weather, here is me vs a friend's vette from a DIG the night I killed my DRs. I am the second race that starts at 33 seconds.

You're only running intake, exhaust and tune. I'm running the same mods making 360whp and I definitely dont need DRs to keep traction. Do you really need them? Save yourself the money and buy longer lasting tires that still grip. Then take that money and put it towards your cam!

Now this is the results im talking about. I would usually walk out on them ( my car trapped 114) Get some tires and revideo. I have a hero 2 now, maybe I can get some 5.0 races recorded before I do the modding. Good race op, nice to see a race with no bullshit excuses.

My Mickey Thompson ET Streets have about 4k miles on them and they still have about half the tread life....I had Nitto 555Rs and they lasted me 12k miles and still have half the tread life. Why modify a car then put some garbage *** street tires on it that won't hook, seems like pissin in the wind to me.
