Road race slicks do better than 99 percent of street tires and most the popular drag radials.

Is it smoke crack day down in the trailer park today? ??? Road race slicks completely suck for drag racing. We had a set of road race slicks and launching on them was like trying to launch on an ice rink.

Had a set of 23" hoosiers on the sentra. 14 psi in them, burnout a little longer than normal to heat them up, and they cut 1.8 60' times with the car's best of 7.8 @ 92 mph. Better than 99% of street tires, and most drag radials. Lets see bfg junk street tire rubber passed off as a drag radial do better :rolleyes:

I think they will do good, the guy I bought them from is a professional roadracer, and he told me after the he do one lap around the track they are soft and has a lot of grip, he has a garage full of them, and he sells them to a lot of drag racers for $100 a pair. and he said they love them, he only used them one time then sells them. but I am not that good at launching so I need to get some practice with the slicks, cause with them they will put me in the outlaw class, and I suck, I only win races because my car is quick, not my driving ;D
