That's what I used to do before I switched to Goodyears last year. My 2014 COPO has over 100 runs to date!

Wow....can't believe those tires are still delivering the numbers after so many runs...
and on high-hp cars no less!!

Beacon Dragway does a very good job of track prep. It is a good place to race or test.
Thanks, Larry. Please keep us updated on this and let us know how many runs they last.

I will get a tread depth when I change the engine later this week.

Tread depth after 176 runs 3 1/2 to almost 4 thirty-seconds.

Does anyone know or have contact info for the Goodyear rep that has the truck at the D1 races and Nationals? I think his name is Dan?

Competition Tire East 610-375-6191. I'm pretty sure you're right, his name is Dan, but I lost his card. Nice Guy.

After putting 10 runs on the tires this week, must be close to 200 runs on this set, and the last run 1.30 60' I'm taking them off. I plan to do a back to back test to see if they are faster after they have had some rubber worn off.

Do radials work on stick cars?

Re: Goodyear 4457 Radial
 
I got them to hook once on the truck and were faster......... the rest of the runs not real sporty. My problem is lack of experience with the clutch, I think some of the D/S and E/S racers have tried them.
