Drag radials offer the best dry grip but at a price. The sidewall construction on a drag radial (we're talking real drag radials) are very soft to allow the sidewall to flex as the contact patch slaps forward to hook up. They have to flex in response to the torqe of the axle and for normal street driving, they corner like doo doo due to that exact same sidewall flex.
