Hoosier C06 or C07 Radials?

[DeasonR212]

I have a '66 Coronet setup like Stocker expect with 493" 13.0cr power plant and glass hood. It's been a few years since I've had this combo on the track, but have 450+ passes in the car. It has QA1 Double Adjustables up Front, CalTrac Leafs, Rancho 5-Way Rear and CalTrac Bars. I have 5" of range in front with .840 T-Bars. PTC 9" @ 5200rpm. I've ran it with ATI 8" with better short times. Last time out, I went 9.93@135 with 1.404 60' at ~800DA on 94"circ Hoosier Radials C06. That was almost 8 years ago! I always used Hoosier Radials because the section width is the only one that will fit the fenderwell with some custom spacing. I got an easy 125 passes out of the last set, but that's when they were $199 a piece! Last time I ran BIAS, I only got about 75 passes before the sidewalls were mush.

My question to you guys is simple. Do I go back to the C06's or C07's on a 3650# car? Any changes over the last few years in tire tech? I'll be mainly bracket racing at Gainesville, and nearly all 660'. I really don't want to buy from a warehouse (JEGS or SUMMIT), and our local guy only handles MT, or I would buy from them. Last pair i got from a warehouse looks like I got one new one and one that had been collecting dust for a few years. Any help appreciated!
