Maybe I should go full slick. I drove on a BFG DR and I spun slightly...Is there one out there that doesn't need a tube?

You don't "need" tubes with them really...I read that Hoosier doesn't even recommend them for track use. Screws might be another story depending on power level. I'm running my QTPs tubeless and screwless and plan to drive them to the track at least once and see how they do.

Just to note ... Nitto NT05 "Drag Radials" have a wear rating of 0. They are different from the "Street" NT05. I run 275/40x17 MT drag radials on my 95 T/A street car (supercharged, lowered road race suspension, automatic & 3.73 gears. I get low 1.7x 60 foot times with a best ET of 11.72 @ 119 MPH. Tires hook very well but are total crap to/from track if the roads get any rain at all .... Just slick as ice so I won't even drive the car home if it starts raining while I'm away from the house with the car. But then it is a weekend/track day car only.

Later ... Larry S.
