i had several sets of A body rear drum shoes relined with fork lift linings so the car would hold on the starting line better when foot brake racing it
I had taken those brake shoes to a brake relining shop and ask which type linings would work best for drag racing and they said that the forklift linings were the ones what I wanted.
It might be a good idea to mention your going to use them only for offroad drag racing Good luck, let us know how that goes for you
