There is at lease 1

Running in a Class that only allows a DOT Tire, That is the reason these tires were made it the first place.

If you are going Bracket Racing or just test and tune, then you're right.

 

And DR's Do Not like a Shock Load, thats when they break loose and spin.

The ET Street has a much softer side wall and works better with a stick car.

Another advantage of the ET Street VS the Street Radial on a 350Z with IRS, is that you will get Full Contact of the Tire, with the Radial you will get 75% at best, unless you adjust out your camber

 

I think 75% is a bit low, but the IRS is always going to be an issue. DR's are not as easy on driveline parts as slicks, though, that much I agree with you on.

 

Well with my car I have -3/4* camber.

275/60/15 DR's have a 9.50" tread, only making contact on 7.50" max

9.50 x 79%= 7.50 max.

Ya, you're right a little low

 

ya, in the heavy g35.

it takes 10 mins to swap tires at the track. my little trailer was 160$, hitch mount was like $150. hoosier has a nice DOT cheater slick that would be another option to the MT

 

Pretty sure he isn't running in a drag radial class. I could be wrong though. lol
Preloading the car does not shock the tires as much as just dumping the clutch.

 

the et streets will be much more forgiving for the stick car and will be easier on driveline parts and will outperform the old tire..get ur *** to the track

 

I can wait to see those kinda 60' times on my timeslips...I'll be happy with 2.0' for now....good info guys!!

 

Good info guys.

 

Loving my E/T streets. No more wheel hop or spin.
