FourString Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Oh I will if I can, but I haven't found anyone to work for me. I can't just call off. That wouldn't be very responsible would it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, drag tires have weak sidewalls, so most likely you will have even more trouble keeping the car from understeering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it isn't raining, who needs tread? It costs $25 to have tirerack shave tires, you've done it for free. Less tread = better contact patch :thumbup: Also, x2 on the uber weak sidewall of drag radials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are designed for straight line work with flexible sidewalls - even though they are DOT approved - very flexible. Probably not bad enough to be called unsafe for autocross, but not the best solution. The "close to bald" street tires are your better choice. You are looking for cornering grip as you will be mostly turning - careful use of the right pedal to stay within the tires grip will net you the fastest times!
