Drag Radials
If you don't have them, you'll have to "feather" the car off the line.
With your mods on street tires, I'm going to guess, oh....14.7@ 98 mph

With nitto drag radials how long would they last on the rear if you just used them on the street?

If you didn't do any, I would guess about 10-15,000.
But be warned, don't get caught in the rain with D/R's. They will hydroplane in a second.
The best advice I can give is practice your driving, the driver mod is the best one for the money, untill you get so you can run a consistant time ather changes to the car will be guess work. As for drag radials, I have said it before drag radials are not like slicks in the rain esp. the Nitto it has a regular tread pattern, those that have hydroplaned would most likley done it regular tires as well. Yes I drive my dr's everday even in the rain, you just gotta use your head and they will be fine.
you know the problem with most people here is the fox can be made quite fast without going in the engine...most can't get a very mild modded stang to run...you have to have a SUSPENSION!!!!!!!!and tires
nitto DR's will get u about 10-15k and u can drive em on the street, bfg's will get u about 5k and I wouldn't drive em on the street, MT's will probably only see 1k. To me since my car is a daily driver cutting a 1.8 as opposed to a 1.6 aint so bad for all the extra use u get out of the nitto's.
