My next drag tire setup ????????/
OK, I burned out my first set of BFG 275/40/17 Drag Radials at the Nationals and are ready for my next set. With my new found Vette Doctors prescription at 450 rwhp, MN6, 4:10 rear, hardened output shafts etc, what do you guys recommend my next setup should be?

You are at the very edge of traction capabilities of a drag radial. Since you don't have to drive home on them, get something good like the ET Streets or go for a full blown slick
Radials rock, bias ply even better

I just MAY have a set of used ET STreets for sale at a pretty reasonable price in case you want to try them but not go for a big nut.
They have like 40+ passes remaining & are 26x11.5x17.
I don't think you need full slicks just yet bro.
PM me!
