Drag Radials Update - Tested Today!
James,
You asked in the other post how these drag radials work. I took the car out today and I couldn't believe how well these tires hook up....... I tired it in second gear rolling after a slow shift out of 1st and then stabbing it. With the 295/50/15 Yokohamas I had on the car, in second and even third gear it would break the tires loose and of course you know the rest. With these new drag radials it hooked up immediately and took off like a bat out of hell......The real test then came, how about 1st gear????
Well I didn't try bringing it out of the hole but again just got the car rolling in 1st and stabbed it...............WOW again it hooked almost immediately and scrared the Bjesus out of me as it shot forward and hit my 7000 RPM limiter pretty quick. Iam really, really impressed with these drag radials. The other great thing is they are 27.7 inches high which is like the 275/60/15 tires and really help my 3:73 gear. Makes it more like a 3:50 ratio now. They are only about 1 inch wider then the 295/50/15 Yokohamas I had on the car.......
