The Nittos are softer than most street tires and stick a heck of a lot better

street tires = burnout
drag radials = sticky

If you could burnout Nitto DR's at will, don't you think they would be a lot less covetted for drag racing?

Try spinning them on a puddle or something, or at least laying some water down.
