Before you settle on a tire talk to MT, Goodyear, Hoosier etc, and they will all tell you that their drag radials (not drag slicks) are not suitable for LSR and only should be used for short bursts of speed as in 1/4 mile racing. Nitto was the only tire manufacturer that endorsed LSR for their drag radials.
Even with the qualification that it is only 1 mile, they all stated that they should not be used. I don't go fast enough to worry about it....just saying....talk to the guys who make them about how their products should be used.
