Drag radial T/A's

[1970hemicuda]

Any opinons on how these rate against the other DOT approved drag tires, like the Goodyears or the Mickey Thompsons?

I have driven lots of miles on the Drag Radial T/As, but not the others. Traction was great, but it would get sideways very easily in the rain. I would think they all would though.

Thanks Barry ... yeah, I guess they'd all get a little sideways in the rain, but it sounds like you've been pleased with those you've driven ~

1970Hemi-----   You can control a lot of that "wrinklewall stuff" with air pressure.  Run a lot of pressure on the street and then let the air out for the track.  Some folks run 20-25 psi on the street and 4-10 psi at the track on the same tires.

Ah, great info ... thanks.  Looking forward to the Spring ~
