Naaawww guys. You'd be surprised. It's actually a joke driving it on street tires (radials). It literally just annihilates the tires in 1st through 3rd going under 60 MPH. At 60 MPH, in just street trim, when you drop to third and nail it, the car pulls so hard through 3rd and 4th on the top end that it literally feels like its going to bust loose at any time. It's right on the edge.

So, with that said, any stop light race would be very difficult, as you'd just be burning rubber and the other guy would be gone. However, almost no one ever messes with me. You just know when you see and hear the thing that you just better forget it.

OMG - now on the drag strip when you've got the drag tires all on is when you need the fricking neck brace!
