I just think they must be good for conditions other than normal, given the tread pattern!! ;)

On the other hand, the treads don't look like they'd survive more than one or two burnouts ...

they dont come in a size that you could use yet, either in 16 or 17" . But they price right in line with the nitto's at around 120.


Drag racing in wet conditions!!!???? :-ok:

How about tires for drag racing in snow? We might need some for the 28th (NOT) ... I guess the fellows in Canada would sure like something like that ...

I guess you could always use spikes ... :)

OK Rob...

I understand that the Rustang is new and all, but why does the picture have to be so much bigger than the pic of your Camaro? Image

no hints, just luck of the sizing draw. If you mean if both cars ran right now, which one would get drove more? Ask me that once both cars run :).

one of the cars is gonna become race car first, street car second, shouldnt be to hard to guess which one.

I was a member at corral, before cz28, so I guess the answer is, I've always went to both car sites. You'd be surprised at all the stuff that works the same, or the ideas that cross-over between the 2 makes.

Seems like at the GM sites, someone is always asking things like "I am going to buy this or that, what other part should I buy?" and at the 5.0 sites the questions are more "I'm going to adjust this or that, what are some other combinations I should try?"

Thats pretty much a generalization I know, cuz there are some really up to speed guys on cz28 offering tips, but for the most part, the GM guys are checkbook racers.

Ok, I think it's cool, but I have a hard enough time keeping track of posts, so I would just get mixed up! :p
