Full Slick vs DOT Slick Traction wise at the strip, how much difference is there between the two? Does a full slick really have any advantage over a ET Street, Quick Time Pro, or M&H Cheater Slick?

I asked Jason Moulton from MT this question a few years ago (28x10.50 ET Drag vs 28x12.50 ET Street) and this was his response:
"The constructions for the ET Street are very similiar, and the compound is the same as used on the 10.5 tires. Neither are not considered a "stiff sidewall" tire."

According to Micky Thompson's publications. Only difference is the "water channel" groove on the DOT version. Other than that little groove they are the same tire.
Really though, who makes so much power and leaves hard enough that 1/8" of contact patch is noticeable?
