My turbo car 69 bird w 468 Pontiac T88 off one of racin Jason’s cars,(big big fan of Jason’s RIP) made 960 Hp and 1150 ft lbs and it hooks on BFG 325 Drag radials. Never had it on a nitto. I don’t leave off the T brake only F brake runs 9.70 at 146. It’s a simple ladder bar w diagonal link that I never mess with thing hooks in gravel. It’s got PLENTY of patina after 160 -180 track passes a year for the first 5 years and then around 100 for the next 5 and a bunch of street driving. I hate the pantina on both my cars. Both were race cars and though I tried to keep them nice stuff happens. I can’t paint anymore and I don’t trust anyone else to paint it. So it is what it is for now . I may vinyl wrap the one that’s not rare this year I can still do that wrapped a few airplanes including my own every one loves them in many ways better than paint in many ways not. ��
