Would like to hear some reviews on the Dragy from you guys once you get things sorted out and get a few good runs. Maybe start a thread in the Street forum if you’re so inclined.

A pair of easy to find and inexpensive 15x7 Rally II wheels would accommodate some 235/60 or 255/60 drag radials and work pretty well.

I’m seriously considering getting one to see how my 421 convertible does. When I was thrashing it a bit from zero to about 90 in an effort to seat the rings it doesn’t really break traction from a standing start with the 2.56 open rear.

It should be consistent but not all that quick, if it breaks into the high 13s I’d be ecstatic.
