Sorry if this is the wrong place? I did a search and did not find what I am looking for. If possible, I would like only those with real experience to comment.
I am in the process of purchasing new rear tires for the bracket car and I have some questions. My car is a 1969 Road Runner/Satellite 3200 lbs foot break with a W2 headed small block. I will be flashing the 3500 RPM converter from 2500 RPM.
My questions:
Does one tire bite better than the other at the start?
Does the surface prep matter?
Is one more stable at speed?
Does the radial need more burnout heat than the slick or vice-versa?
How many runs will a radial take before losing grip?
What radial would you recommend?
What slick would you recommend?
I am looking at 26-28 by 9 wide on 10 inch wide wheels

Thanks for the help, I only want to do the purchase 1 time.
