James, There no problems at all using slicks rear and radials front at the drags.I like many others have done hundreds of passes using this combination without dramas.If you go to the drags once you'll see what i mean.Have a look at the s/s class.

A lot of the fastest drag cars at Eastern creek (particularly the mazdas) run wide slicks on the rear and skinny radials up front, and they always go 100mph+ and they always stop fine..  ----- Original Message ----- From: James Marmont To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Thursday, 6 December 2001 2:29 Subject: RE: Anyone GOT SLICKS for GOD-20L???  i dont know of any rules, but just think about it logically............it IS a disaster waiting to happen, especially seeing as the front wheels take most of the cars weight under brakesdont do it or you will end up like Todd Wilkes  r.i.p -----Original Message----- From: Duncan Shillito [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, 6 December 2001 2:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Anyone GOT SLICKS for GOD-20L???   what is the rule about slicks on the rear and standard radials on the front.............. i've heard that this is a disaster waiting to happen - especially at 100+ mph and then braking heavily.........     dunc.  >From: "Cameron Stean" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Anyone GOT SLICKS for GOD-20L??? >Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2001 08:43:55 +1000 > Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
