That dude gave a very professional and insightful presentation. impressed.
18" MT Bonneville tire is rated at 595 mph.
Changed many on Bruce Littions and JR Todds TF/D.
That is a biggg tire
Hey all you drag racing guys.. why are drag car's tires so close together, like why do they have skinny axels on the NHRA cars, and even on street drag cars, a ton of them have their tires tucked way under the fenders.. Wouldn't you want a really wide and low car..? It's hard to google this question as well lol
Just like traxxas
Rc tires
Impressive how this works. Almost the same way the Bugatti Veyron’s expensive $42,000 a set tires can do.
I'm most impressed that it can handle that insane starting torque with out shredding to bits. They're super light when you think about the size / surface area.
