Mine won't work at all at the track on a Drag Radial - so I run those on the street. The MT ET Street Radials work about 5X better than the "regular" street tires do� just not at the track on my heap. It's just too heavy.

Luckily I am able to race at well prepped tracks on the IHRA circuit as well as occasionally at local bracket tracks.
