I'll get to you hopefully Friday nite, can you remind me how much your car weighs and what trans, and what rear gear you have ?
Thanks

Yep, they do not have that tiire

Supercat:
Glen we use the Hoosiers also 33x12x15 (CO9) compound on 11inch wide wheel.
We have always been happy with them on our car until the last event. Honestly not sure if it was the track or the tires.
1.08 60ft hardest launch I have tried with the new convertor and a new tuneup.
The car dead hooked and started a bad shake @about 100ft(this track is also VERY rough) I stayed in it until about 350-400ft=  5.1et 1/8 chute out before the line ,short and bumpy shut down.
After that I spoke to Jon about the GoodYears he has.
We will be getting a set soon to try as it is a stiffer sidewall than the Hoosiers, and a bit harder compound.  I still do like the Hoosiers though.
