front wheel drive slicks

TOM KASCH · 07-24-2007, 08:14 PM

I raced fwd cars since 1983
no one ever ask me if they coulld run our type of tires on a rear wheel car.
But I wondered if a dragster like a vw or 6cly could because of light wt.
In 83-86 we ran Goodyear road race tires that were not slicks, they worked o.k.,
but not as good asHoosier or m/t's in the 90's-2003.
I think it would depend on the wt of your car, but WHY would you want to unless you need lots of rpm's ?
just a old man's thinking................
