    I run drag radials, but I've seen people run slicks in the street class. I don't think they care tbh.

    Slicks would be the only way my FWD would have a prayer.

    That's what I run. As long as they are dots you can run them legally.

    Good idea, but not in my size (24.5"). I also checked on ET Streets, which is what I ran on the Mach 1. I'd rather not run a 26" if I don't have to. That's a big tire for my stock gear ratio.
    I'll just stick with slicks and see you guys at PRP.

    I wonder how upset they'd be if I just so happened to accidentally hit the wheel squirters with the traction compound while doing my burnout. Do they frown on traction compounds? The rules seem to bend every which way depending on who the racer is.

    They wouldn't know. I will say the hardest part is getting a spot at the line where some street tire car didnt pulled water out of the box.

    This was at Green County last year. Had a little problem hooking up. Mine is the White one. Car ran 12.37@115 at PRP but I'm not bringing that one this year! By the way ran him 5 times and never lost! He was on the juice and mine was stock.

    This is the new sled. Hooking up may be more of an issue!!!

    Nice Hellcat, get some drag radials!

    Is the sticker on the side from dodge/mopar or is it an aftermarket thing? I haven't see it before.

    Is it just me or did anyone else read his screen name as Hellokty. I had to read it twice then started laughing at myself.

    Sorry I didn't want to say anything but I was laughing at myself thinking "Who would use the screen name Hellokty"?
