Safely use drag radials
Hi im new to this forum and looked around before posting this but I can't seem to find out what needs to be upgraded or beefed up to use drag radials at the track.. What should I go with so I don't snap anything on hard launches like axles or things of that nature. Thanks for the feed back
Stock with the dr's and then modded srt6 is what I'm looking for

You don't have to worry about axles, they are pretty stout. Over time, you will need to worry about the rear diff eating itself alive. I run 275/54R17 Hoosier drag radials that hooked very well when I was still supercharged and running 12.0's. I spin them on the 1-2 shift now if the track is cold or poorly prepped.

Never ran the car at the track with the custom header-back exhaust, Needswings Intake manifolds and Eurocharged 185mm pulley.
I was using stock type bolts of different lengths until recently. The studs I have are 80mm and I purchased both ball seat and conical seat lugs. The studs are long enough for a 5mm spacer. The studs I used are from this company.
