So I was looking at admission fee's and it looks to me like I need to run street tires to compete in Street Chevy? How dumb is that... Or will my MT ET Streets qualify as street tires?

You could call and ask but I'm 99% sure DOT drag radials would be fine. I think it means street legal.

That makes sense to me

Street tires in a street class. I don't think it could be any simpler?

Actually it isn't simple, that's why he asked. Many people refer to tires that aren't drag radials as "street tires" to differentiate them from DRs, but most DRs meet the requirements of street tires for most types of racing.

Drag Redials are DOT approved, so those are considered street tires also, anytime I've seen a "street" class

almost all street classes means Drag Radials or Bias ply radials. aka just no slicks kevo.

This Saturday? Can't make it I am doing a benefit golf tourney. I will be there Oct 5th though.
