I am only going to speak for myself but I would never run a conventional rear tire on my barracuda, I only run drag radials and they hook pretty decent actually......or at least good enough the car launches straight forward. I think it would be ludicrous to run around in a high 5 hundred horse car with passenger tires.......dangerous to me. And who in thier right mind would ever intentionally take thier 4-600 horse car out during the rain anyway, irreguardless of what tire you would have on it, it would still handle like crap and risk wrecking our cars. I do drive around in a 10 second street/strip car and it doesn't phase me in the least, I love it actually, and I'm thinking about turning it up a little. If I only had 400 horse in my car with all the other modern hot rods out there that run decent I would constantly be getting my butt handed to me. So I will take my 500 plus street/strip car anyway and wax 98% of anyone you may run across and feel great about myself. Thanks.
