I'm gonna try the Vreds next before going to a drag radial.

I agree. I put the NT 05 on my car just to put around on. One sat I took the car out with sunny skies and no rain in the forecast. A few hrs later it was down pouring and the driving was white knuckled. Had to drive like an eggs was underneath the throttle. Pretty sketchy.

I couldn't imagine trying the DR version of these things if they're any worse than the street tires.
