A good set of drag radials will do whatever the slicks'll do. With a pre-heat and about 14psi in the rear tires I can yank both front tires with mine on a hole-shot.

undy,

We are on the same page! A set of 325-50 drag radials and a low rear gear
(3.73-4.10ish) and its over for the Italian car. Provided our boy hits all the gears.

They should do 2 out of 3 to allow for missed shifts etc.
