Those tires have taken my car to a 10.81 @ 125.5 MPH with a 1.52 60ft time. I'd say they get it done. [Wink]

You can check the drag racing section from some pics. [patriot]

+1 specifically for the track.

If i had 18's again i'd run the BFG for sure.

Unless MT came out with a 18" variety.

Yes they do. I was able to hit 1.42 on stock 17" wheels with mt drag radials. And I'm on IRS too!

275/40 17" for right now with expected release of a larger 315/35 17" more toward summer time.

I think they were discussing an 18" version as well but i'm not 100% sure [Roll Eyes]

Well Matt he does have a 1000hp Supra. And he has a Unicorn running around in his backyard.

But for real I was able to cut a 1.64 with my car on the Mickeys.

i have never tried the BFG drag radials but i had a pair of the m/t drag radials and all i could say is that those were the best tires i ever own and i drove them on the streets a lot and they hook crazy.

Well yes I do have a high hp supra and I have trapped over 150 with mt radials and they handled the speed great. I usually have them at 10-12 psi hot when racing. Also, in the past I have put up my time slips for all you to see just how I have done with the mt's in the 60 and all slips were low 1.4s.

Here's my dyno sheet on medium power. Thst wiggle is tire slip I spun the tires because I put down so much hp so fast. I still have plenty of hp left on the table but I ain't gonna let you know how much. Lets just say that 4 digits is not out of the question! And my unicorn is cute she's gotta big horn and ain't afraid to use it! You foos will find out come race season.
