I've run drag radials on plenty of cars. I have used my car on the streets many times. I've been on the track a bunch of times. 450+rwtq starting at 1800rpms is going to light up the tires in 1st gear on the street, and at an unprepped track.
I am trying to grasp how you are able to do it, but I just can't come up with a logical conclusion in a car that has 1300#'s over the rear tires.
In a a car with substantially less power, that won't have the traction problem to this extent, I understand the reasoning for a lower gear. It's a quick way to save money and get the desired results. But there are two different discussions going on, one with you and one with the OP, rgnbull1227. Spinning tires is useless IMO. Your opinion on what the definition of useless is obviously differs.

Im running Mickey Thompsons. I dont know what to tell you. I come off Idle and nail it. Others with similar set ups do the same thing. Greg Schroeder is a prime example. If useless in your opinon means dumping the clutch at 2k or more and not spinning than I guess you are correct. But to say you will have no traction and that the car will be undriveable is 100% false. How do I know this? Beacuse I do it!
