My drag car has always run tubes in the fronts with Moroso ft tires.
I'm thinking about eliminating them to aid pitch rotation.
The car currently runs Super Tricks, but I'll be putting Flys back on it like it wore Back In The Day.
Who does what, and any leakage or problems?

I run GY eagle front runners on mine W/O tubes. They didn't leak much if any till they sat out side and started cracking on the sidewall. When I talked to a GY rep she said it was because they use a natural rubber with little to no UV protection.

Hoosier front runners here, without tubes.


It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose…
as long as you look good doing it!

No tubes in our Moroso front tires and never any problems.

Allways went tubeless... Much greater chance of a blowout with tubes...Tubeless will not go flat all at once unless it's cut down...Tubes burst....

Well, that pretty much settles it. Tubes be gone!
