800hp daily?

[GrimJack]

In 2008 at the dyno challenge in Vegas, Ryan pegged the dyno at 1500 rwhp.

Yeah, I thought that he was around 1200. I was just wanting to show an example of how a drag car is not intended to be driven on the street. I think anything over 500 is crazy on street tires and driving around on drag rims and radials is not ideal or safe.

You can hook 600 with the right tires under the right conditions. Victoracer V700's help a lot...:evil2:

As far as hooking on the street, I found that the Toyo RA-1 is a way better "street tire" than the Victoracers. My experience with Victoracers is that they heat cycle and harden way too quickly from daily use while the RA-1's have about comparable traction and last a long time relative to other R compound tires. Victoracers where my first experience with R compounds and I was so pleasingly shocked by the traction that I just left them on for daily use...but they don't hold up well to that kind of use.
