M/T ET Street or Drag Radial.

I have the moroso ds-2 on 3.5” draglites, and still undecided about the rear tires. Have them narrowed down to M/T et street or drag radial, will run tubeless either way. Which one requires less burnout, gives better traction and is there any reason why I couldn’t run bias and radial. Needless to say, this will only be for the track.

Re: M/T ET Street or Drag Radial.

Since you already have Morosos on the front I'd go with the ET Streets...I know its only a track car, but keeping both front and rear as bias plies will make the car more stable at the big end of the track. The ET Streets are probably lighter, especially if you run them w/o tubes. ( I don't recommend this, but lots of people do it anyway...I've always been partial to tubes and rim screws..) Both tires hook pretty equal, anyway.

I ran around w/ no tubes and ran the car on the street a lot w/ the same combo. No problems at all. I'd go ET Streets all the way.

ET Streets are the only choice IMO for track only...DR's are for street driving.
