best tires for the buck are the BFG Gforce Drag radials. they wear pretty quick about 5000 miles or about 1 good season of dragging.

Would these tires be good for a big turbo setup car just for fun drag racing, not for competition obviously. Would it yield a 60' of 2.0 or less? would a 400whp get any traction on these tires?
