if tread come unwound it should make a real cool sound.
I doubt if the sound would be heard over the screams of the driver.
It would be nice if you could just run down to the local tire dealer and buy LSR tires for a couple of bucks, but it doesn't work that way.
LSR tires are expensive and scarce.
The BGMR record at Bonneville is 238.
From the SCTA rule book:
2.F Tires:
In excess of 200 MPH: Special tires for racing as designated by the manufacturer. . . The use of any non-rated tire(s) . . . must be submitted for approval to the contest board in writing 45 days prior to the event.
So ok, you want to roll your own. You need to come up with a combination that will withstand the speed, the weight of the vehicle, provide adequate traction, and be perfectly safe.
Whatever the combination you pick from your list, you can't just ask somebody else if they think it will work. You have to do the engineering, build prototypes, build a test rig, test at least 20% faster than you are going to run at 100% over the rated load, and then take all of that to the SCTA and get their approval.
I doubt if they would accept anything else.
