- Everybody (almost) has it figured out for their own car, and every car is different. Some cars can't reach their ultimate top speed (i.e.. street roadsters) because of tire spin because they are sha

- Since I'm relatively new to this LSR......... 1/ Many dirt (& asphalt) trackers buy various tire softeners/chemicals for extra traction which seems to work very well for them. You may recall some bi

- You bring up some good questions here. I have run the NASCAR style Goodyear Bonneville tires with semi successful (220 MPH in a coupe) results. Have often wondered if the lack of any tread had any e
