Default Quickest on 235/60-15 Radial?

What is the fastest anyone has gone on a 235/60-15 radial? Are the MT the fastest?

Regards,
Justin

JimmyTNT on h-t went well into the 10's on that radial on a stock b18c1 longblock in a full street car. He'd have to chime in with his exact time.

Justin,
What class are you building this thing for. HeadsUpNW has a drag radial class that Tim competes in with his mustang. They allow you either a 235/60/15 MT or a 275/50/15 BFG drag radial. He has been 9.56 @ 124 on the 275s, losing the IC pipe at 100' (trapped 124 in the 1/8th on that pass).

You should really come out racing when that car of yours gets done

Its going to be a while before my car gets done. Its just that the 235/60-15 MT fits the 280z really easily. I think it would be funny trying to put down a lot of power through such a small tire. I've heard people getting into the 9's with RWD setups on this tire. Just curious how well people have done with them so far.
