I run bfg drag radials 245/45/18 on the street and they hook really hard from a roll. But they dont stick from a launch out of the hole. I dropped the pressure down to 12lbs at the stip and they were still spinnin. I managed a 1.699 60ft time with them. I am hopin with the slicks I can get my 60ft time around 1.4

My tires are 10.5 inches wide. With low tire pressure they hook pretty hard from a roll. With the nos it spins a little in second and barks third and forth. But it still is pullin forward when they spin, its not like i am baking em.

I am going to be runnin 10inch slicks on a 15 inch wheel. The 18s are my drag radials. I have lakewood suspension all the way around, with eibach air bag drag springs. I took it out today with the slicks on and practiced my launches. I am hopin for 1.4 if i end up with 1.5 so be it. I put down a 1.699 with no nitrous,and 18's. All I can say is with the slicks this car gets it out of the hole. I have my nitrous tied into my throttle. At wot it activates. No pushbuttons here. I will videotape the runs on wednesday and download em.
