If you want to go fast for more than a few seconds at a time and also put your car into high G turns, the Avons are designed specifically to do this, and to do it very well. Regarding the M/Ts Drag Radials. They are fine tires. I have a set that I use on the rear when I go drag racing. That is what they are designed for. Why in the world would anyone want to put a tire on the front of their car that is designed to run low air pressure, get squishy and provide good traction under hard acceleration for a short period of time? Has anyone called the M/T tech support people to ask them what they think of using the drag radial on the front of a Cobra replica? It seems like a very dangerous, bad idea to me, but, what do I know?
