Re: tire spinnn (kewlpapaw)
How are you heating them up? Are you driving thru the water? What setup are you running? How is your track prepped? Auto or stick? SCOTT

Re: tire spinnn (kewlpapaw)
I found mine to spin unless they were really heated. The line lock was the difference. Don't go in the water. It gets in the treads and you will lose traction.

If your not getting lots of tire smoke they're not sticky.

With drag radials, I would suggest going through the water.

Re: tire spinnn (kumar75150)
The tracks I go to, will not let anyone with treads in the water. It really screws up the starting line.

I have the BFG's also and can't seem to get better then a 2.1. It is better then the 2.4's I was getting. I guess I need to warm them up better. Kaley
