    I'll be surprised if that's what they end up focusing on with my car. They'll just have to send me home if they have an issue with it. It'll suck trying to find a good secluded road (on a closed course in Mexico) to test my car on if I get kicked out lol.

    As long as they are a DOT legal tire (which i believe the QTP's are), then yes. Bias ply or radial does not matter.

    I wish I had a convertible so I could run with the top down and a wristband on my right wrist.

    God forbid I cheat with my massive 8.5" slicks. I hope someone stops me since my morals are all out of line.

    Rules are rules. If you don't think they apply to you then carry on. Just don't be surprised if someone says something to you?

    How is the traction there compared to an actual drag strip? As bad as a track for street tires? It's tempting to come with my summer tires, but don't want to just waste the tread and be the idiot trying launch a FWD.
