    M/t

    I think Terry Munroe is the only car that has run good numbers with them lately in a T/A car. I've seen a few on some Outlaw P/M cars but I haven't heard of any big numbers with them.

    M/T Slicks

    We have run the M5 compund M/T slick; 34.5 X 16" slick for 3 years now on an Outlaw Dragster in Blown Alcohol with a ATI Superglide 4 and run .91 to .92 on the 60' and usually 3.80s with them, some chatter on loose tracks, but the sidewalls do not tear your chassis up with tire shake.

    They don't like and MT does not recommend a big burn out with them. Try and keep the starting line tire temp close to track temp for best results. They also seem to have a wear grove about were the rim edge sets over the tire. Tried some last race.
    I still prefer the Goodyear 2622's.

    Great grip at the starting line. Great for a poor track down low. They can slip a little more than the Goodyear down track. I like em.
