Best semi slick

BBK · 06-22-2011, 06:31 AM

Hi all, just wondering what the best type of semislick there is for the drag strip. I know the MT are probably best but are there any others that might be good but are cheaper and easier to find?

Yeah have heard a bit about them, but hard to get in australia, and Tirerack doesn't stock them...

MT ET Street (Bias Ply, not radial) are going to be about the quickest. Hoosier QuickTime Pros are up there as well. Once you launch on a bias ply tire, you'll never want to mess with a radial at the strip again.
