Racerx, forgot to mention cal trac mono leaf with bars, cal trac shocks with the Hemi . Santhuff shocks with the 383 Hey Ron , it weighed 3195 without me and a alum headed Hemi . 383 ss motor was 3050 without me. All off the nose of the car. Of coarse I had to add some weight to it as I have to weigh 3470 for ss/ja. I have been running it at 3560 ish so I will lighten it up a little also to get it a little closer to min weight. That is with me in the car. Thanks Tom. If you dont mind me asking do you know the HP that 383 makes. I dont know anything about your 383 but thats a strong 60 so it sure sounds like a strong 383 stocker eng. How fast has it gone with that stout 383 ? Thanks , Ron

I was on Mickey Thompson's web sight and they have 2 different NEW tires I am interested in. The ET Drag Radial 29.5/10.5 with the R1 compound and the Pro Bracket Radial 29.5/10.5 with X5 compound. All the specs are the same except the compound and the ET Drag Radial is 2 lbs lighter. I am running the 315/60 ET Street Radial now that is the same height but 1 in wider. I would think the first 2 would be the best of both words since they do not have any tread and are a radial but they are 1 in narrower. Which one of the 2 new ones work the best?

D-50, You may want to try asking Jason Moulton , from MT , over on Yellowbullet . He was helpful to me , though i have gone back to Hoosier radials . I have tried the lightweight Hoosier 9x30 , 29.9 dia . Was very happy but did not have enough gear . I am only a small radial guy , Hoosier 275 , with not enough power .
