The BFG's suck, but the pneros actually are pretty good. They hooked better than my Nittos.

Actually those long 5-7 seconds burnouts were hurting you more than helping you... For regular street radials you DO NOT want to do a long burn out... it actually makes them more slippery... For street radials you want to drive around the waterbox and give them a quick spin just to clean the dirt off...
