Hoosier drag radial vs bracket radial

The Hoosier bracket radials are different than the drag radials:

They have a softer compound than even the C06 & are a heavier tire even though they're slightly narrower.

The M/T PBRs are pig fat heavy, but they still work very well.

I run between 18 to 21 lbs. of air pressure, lately it has been 20 lbs.

Here's another thread with some Hoosier drag radial & M/T bracket radial information. I'm pretty sure Mr. Smith has seen this.

A thread about a 9" tire no mind a M/T tire in no way answers Larry's question nor helps him decide.

Oh that's right, he already decided what tire to run.

I've gotten 5 PMs between Larry & Adger not only thanking me for the contributions to the thread. They also had questions & other comments related to the thread.

There are differences between the drag radials & bracket radials not just marketing. I provided the differences between the two tires in the OP & the link provides some of it. Plus, provides other information to their discussions.

Take that tidbit to your therapist & maybe he or she will pretend to give a shyt.

Now, back to the original question of what's the difference. You come up with the clueless comment.
