Performance. Check out these times recorded by FireCore50 customers last weekend in Valdosta.
There is a new M/T 275 Drag Radial as well. It is not DOT, but it really posted up some numbers in the classes.
I know I am seeing more and more Drag Radials on Mopars at races and shows. Turns your Drag Only car into a possible street cruiser too, without having to swap over your slicks to street tires everytime. The origianl M/T are DOT approved.
. January was our largest selling month ever. Over 7000 feet in 31 days. I can not help but think a large part of it was racers getting ready for the greatest race in February...ever.
We are very humbled by racers trusting us with their ignition wire needs. Thanks. Here is a short list of accomplishments of our customers from last weekend. I can not stress enough, that we played a very small role in what these teams accomplished. Thank you. These are Qualifiers. Sorry If I missed anybody or mis-spoke. Please let me know.

The original style M/T drag radials gave my car the best 60' its ever gotten, but were not as consistent as the slicks, and are MUCH more dependent on track surface prep.
I run them on the street all the time.
