I found this under a customer comment section for BF Goodrich drag radials and thought it was funny...

Saturn 1992 SL - Houston, TX
I race my Saturn SL (75hp NOS) about once every 2 months. I bought my Drag Radials for the Strip only and use my regular street tires for every day driving. The traction once heated up is unbelivable. My burn outs last maybe 3-6 seconds before the Drag Radials start pulling into the staging area even with the emergency brake all the way up. When going up to the 100hp shot of NOS it was my clutch (maker not specified / dual friction) that lost contact before the tires. I will keep using these tires until I get closer to the 12''s and feel the need to go to all out slicks.
