| The tires you have are super sticky. Ask anyone who went to the club shoot out at Rockingham earlier this year. Dumping the clutch is not the way to use these tires. You have to slip the clutch aggressively. Once you start spinning with radials it's hard for them to recover. What's nice about the bias plys are the sidewalls will absorb the inital hit from dumping the clutch and if they spin they do a good job of recovering. |

I agree and the only reason I run bias is because of my IRS. Glenn those tires will hook it just may take some more practice to get it down. _________________
