Draco-REX Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 He thinks 5s are possible on his setup. I'm just amazed by how well the start holds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BStowers023 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Nice set of winter tires there. I could have used those during our last snow storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboRust Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 best one tire and obetz hardware have joined forces! we now install tires with 3000 screws pre installed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Brian Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 40hrs labor put into each set. I'm sure those would be cheap. As for the video, why do they do "burnouts" before heading up to the tree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the video, why do they do "burnouts" before heading up to the tree? My only thought is to get rid of compacted snow between the "studs".

ShowHBK Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Notice how the dip at the start gets lower and lower...WOW! What do you do if that thing breaks through the ice? New NHRA class? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 So, tires work on the launch but how is stopping from 130 on ice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfunnyryan Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 So, tires work on the launch but how is stopping from 130 on ice? stopping is just accelerating in the other direction... unless they arent running any rear brakes then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 stopping is just accelerating in the other direction... unless they arent running any rear brakes then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Non studded front tires with way less surface contact and most cars have bias to the front brakes.

Avenger1647545502 Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Notice how the dip at the start gets lower and lower...WOW! What do you do if that thing breaks through the ice? New NHRA class? That ice is probably well past 30 inches thick. When the hole gets too deep, they just move 10 feet down the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
