Traditional drag radials have no give in the side wall to take the shock of dumping the clutch which will either make you bog or spin. Bias-ply or wrinkle walls have a soft flexible side wall that eats up some of that shock from clutch engagement which reduces alot of the bogging. Hope this helps ya.

I wish I had a video of me launching my 2002.. You really have to drag the clutch to get a decent 60' time on street tires.. My best 60' is a 1.84, on a 12.71 pass with just an air lid, flowmaster muffler and slight tune on BFG KDWs.. If you keep dumping the clutch you are going to either a) spin or b) break something because the rear and driveshaft are your weak points and if you do hook they take too much of a hit. Get to know how your car feels when its about to slip, drag the clutch so its hooking the whole time with minimal spin. No, your clutch probably won't last long, but you'll have better ETs and won't destroy your rear
