I have been to the track 5 or 6 times with my nitto drag radials.
I run mine at 18 psi and burn out until I see lots of smoke then I launch around 3000 RPM's.
My best 60 ft so far has been a 2.14 and I got that 60ft by riding the clutch a little off the line.
On street tires I was barking 2nd and 3rd gear hard but after I put the nittos on no more barking gears and I dropped a tenth off of my best 60ft with the nittos my best ET dropped by 2 tenths.
The only complaint that I have about them is mine have about 30 or so runs on them and the tread is already pretty shallow.
If you heat them up really good you can get some good traction but since I only use the radials at the track next time I am getting Mickey thompson ET streets for sure.
