Tread Pattern
Overview - g-Force™ T/A® Drag Radial
| Benefit: | Incredible traction allows racers to extract more peak performance from the tire during launch, especially for sport compact applications, and results in more consistent and faster 1/4 mile drag strip times* |
|---|---|
| Feature: | Proprietary drag racing tread design and tread compound |
| Benefit: | Reduced distortion, squirm and chunking under high torque loads for more traction† |
| Feature: | Massive competition-developed tread block design |
| Benefit: | Radical appearance |
| Feature: | Drag racing tread design |
| Benefit: | High-speed stability and control, plus more cornering performance while being compatible with radial tires on non-drive axle for improved overall handling and balance; reduced internal stresses for longer treadlife compared to bias-ply tires |
| Feature: | Special radial-carcass construction |
| Benefit: | Helps resist centrifugal force to promote the consistency of the footprint, which maintains tread contact area for maximized grip off the line and through the traps; helps deliver high-speed capability at the big end |
| Feature: | ETEC System™ (Equal TEnsion Containment System) |
| Benefit: | Tread crown stiffened longitudinally and laterally to help keep the tread area from distorting under acceleration; tread area reinforced to help resist punctures |
| Feature: | Two full-width steel belts |
| Benefit: | Reduced risk of punctures, easier mounting with no need for screws; more reliable performance and lower running costs** |
| Feature: | Tubeless construction |
| Benefit: | * Over Comp T/A Drag Radial |
| Benefit: | ** Over bias ply tires |
| Benefit: | † Over non-drag tires |
