Everyone that I know that runs hoosiers (smaller tire than the 26's) have serious traction issues. They dont seem to be near as grippy as m/t's or m&h's. I personally like the m/t's and cant complain. But when you have a guy with the same size tire as me but a hoosier and hes having trouble even pulling 1.7 60's with them and im consistent in the low 1.6's on the m/t's, same tire pressures btw there is a problem. He just seems to spin the hoosiers like crazy same as miller just did in this vid.

Never heard anything good about hoosiers for fwd drag racing slicks.

Hope he didn't pay for those slicks. How long before the car is back on M/T's.

Oh Yea, Great video, thanks for posting it.

Maybe it's not the slicks...maybe he just has a lot more power in the car now and he is still dialing it back. Still went 5.5x baking tire...game over haha.

Truth. If it went 5.5x leaving the line like that, its going to be nasty when it leaves clean.
