Best 9 inch tire?

I back to back to back to back. M/T and Hoosers on my Drag Pak. I found the M/T were a bit quicker.... However, the burnout had to be perfect and starting line placement (no thin rubber spots) seemed to be important to the M/T.... The Hoosers were much more forgiving. And when you screw up as much as I do, in my old age, the Hooser is a better choice. But, my guest is, that's why the M/T seem to be the choice of the shoot out cars that are looking for every last little bit of ET, and it also bites them in the butt occasionally when the tracks going away.
