You will have enough tire to be in control but you will spin and lose some et along the 1/4. What are your mods? It seems like you have around 430rwhp. With 100 shot you should be in the mid-high tens on a good launch/track/shifting.
M&H and MT both make a drag radial that will hook better than the bfg dr. It seems the tires you have still have more in them.(1.6x). Work on your launch technique to squeeze out more et. Your likely giving up .4 or more just on the 60ft.
Your mph should be 130+ with 100 shot on top of you setup.
Give us more details.
