Default Amazement! Drag Radials...

So for tomorrow I threw on my OEM fronts and 17" MT DR...went to get money and food for tomorrow.

Figured I would break them loose to scrub them...damn...All I hear is a chirp and I don't loose traction...

I never knew DR made such a huge improvement....

Still hoping for low 12's tomorrow and not have my car dead at the line.

I dropped my ET drom a 12.8 to a 11.8 the first time out with the MT DR's. I had Nitto's before & still spun badly. Enjoy the G force

I spun with the Nittos too, but even they were a huge improvement over my street tires- I wasn't used to being able to floor it and having the car go completely straight and not having to fight the rear end.
