Well that's your opinion.
Martin and I are almost at the same power levels. So from my experiance. They work good. And I'm not sayn slicks aren't better.

And for real trd07. We in high school. You keep calling me names buddy. It's hurting my feelings. It almost makes me want to kill myself.

I posted a vid of Preston going 1 for 1 with an ISF.....what's the big deal with the ISF race?

Preston one the first race and lost the second and his car was barely breaking 300whp....get over it people. I will admit that the ISF was gaining on him in the first race...nonetheless, the ISF lost the first round.

PS....and those people commenting about him loosing twice need to have their depth perception checked out. That or your cataracts.

Didnt say that at all stop trying to put words in my mouth

If you go to the drag strip and complain about traction you will get maximum benefit from slicks.
Incase you didnt know they make different size slicks

From a roll or a dig, wouldnt matter with a car with a nicer tq curve than yours. Common sense.

All you can come back with is some little kiddie comment like "your mad cause your slow", rather than a valid point? Nice

It's not about the ET. It's about the Trap speed in a roll race.

so i don't put words in your mouth....
you said..."slicks and drag radials cost around the same - why would you buy the tire that performs less"

how i take that comment. is that its a waste of money across the board, from 200whp cars to 600whp cars

i'm just sayn a 200-350 whp car would be fine with drag radials wouldn't be a waste of money..
350+ whp would be better for slicks
