Radial slicks with a stick

Steve Kent was the only A/H guy I know who have tried to run radials. Would be good for a couple of passes and then blow the tires off!

I spoke to an engineer from Goodyear at last years PRI show and this is what he told me.
The M/T radial slicks could be made to work but so far the Goodyears can’t. He said the 1st 1/2 the Bias and Radial would run the same numbers but the 2nd 1/2 the radials shine and are good for a whole 1/10th. He also said the setups would be radically different and they have had test sessions and so far the Goodyears won’t work. Unfortunately M/T discontinued the radials that I ran so I made the switch to the 2070’s
