800 will blow away drag radials from a roll with no heat in them.
I am on the MH racemasters 325 45 17 drag radials, I dont know what you are on but I highly doubt a non clutch drop would blow these off at 40 mph on good surfaces even with 800 rwhp. But IDK for sure. Ive pulled .94g acceleration on the street with these

I swear by the MH drag radials being one of the best out there and lots of guys are sleeping on these tires. I’ve had Nittos, Mickeys, Hoosiers and MH is by far my favorite.

What kind of 60ft did you record on each?

17x10, I think the racemasters run a bit more narrow than most tires for their stated size. I love them though i mean the grip difference between these and street tires is literally insane.

I recently ordered the 315/50/17 et street r. I have et streets now and have no traction at 60. I almost went with the racemaster probably the next tire I try after the et r

One other thing that may be able to show how well these tires grip on the street is that mine moved about 9-10 inches around the rim within a month. The circled mark on the tire was lined up with the valve stem a month ago, this movement of the tire around the rim was all done on the street, no burnout on these tires ever its all just like 100+ 1-2-3 dragmode shifts, that may be able to show how well they grip on the street. I had to take the balancing weights off and they were fine and smooth with no weights even 140 mph. They do hop a bit if you just floor it from a dead stop on the street (no burnout), or fully brake torque launch from a stop, and still chirp a bit hitting 2nd gear. I think rolling on in 2nd gear at 40 mph should be ok, hitting 3rd with 800 rwhp and drag mode you may blow them off but idk, probably just a hard chirp depending on the surface.

I spun my et streets on pp1 rims on the street as well. In my case, it wasn’t a reflection of traction. Lol

How much did yours spin in how many runs, and was this on the street with no burnout?

It was the 285/35/19 et street ss. I had 1k-1400 street miles on them. No passes or real burnouts. Just use them for normal driving (non daily) and highway pulls. At 13 psi edelbrock 2650/ e85 setup I can’t get them to hook at 60 without doing a rolling burnout first. I’ve had the car turn sideways and do some skating till 100mph.

VMS rims will be here Monday. I went with the 50 sidewall (315/50/17) in hopes that more sidewall will help lengthen the gearing of the 10r80 and bite better on the street. It might be too tall. It’s not like they last long and I’ll try the race master next if that’s the case

Good luck. I havent had 800 rwhp but ive had 630 rwhp on a manual cts-v but only ran street tires on that, nothing worked obviously. I have been very impressed with the MH racemasters I couldnt do a rolling burnout with these no matter how hard I tried even in 45 degree weather. I can rip a rolling burnout with 295 35 20 potenza s007s from 50 up to 80+ mph but these racemasters are a different story.
