Any guys with a manual trans car using these tires? I know they're are for auto transmission cars & bias ply is better for a manual, but i'm wondering what is the highest rpm you can launch from without spinning & breaking your rear end with this tire? What are you guys launching from on the track & street with them?

No big deal, I have these and can drop the hammer at 4000-5000 rpm with my 5 speed and 3.73's, they spin a bit on the street but you are still getting out of your own way with authority.

On the track, probably nowhere near as good.

I'm selling mine soon, I hope. Been putting it off for too long.

Is it just me or do you guys find it easier to hook on the street than at the track?

I usually hook better at the track, I think because of burnout gets 'em nice and warm, but also, some track prep. I can get a little spin in 2nd or 3rd on the street , for example, but not at the track.
