The D.O.T. Drag Radial is Hoosier's Drag Racing Radial tire developed for drag racers that compete in sanctioned events at local strips. D.O.T. Drag Radials feature Hoosier’s race-proven technology and compounds, making them ideal for competition classes that require street-legal tires.
Now offering a choice of tire sidewall styling treatments, the Hoosier logo is crisply painted in solid white letters on one sidewall of D.O.T. Drag Radial tires for competitors who want to proudly proclaim their tire choice to fellow drag racers and fans.
WARNING: DOT labeled Hoosier Racing Tires meet Department of Transportation requirements for marking and performance only and are NOT INTENDED FOR HIGHWAY USE. It is unsafe to operate any Hoosier Racing Tire, including DOT tires, on public roads. The prohibited use of Hoosier Racing Tires on public roadways may result in loss of traction, unexpected loss of vehicle control, or sudden loss of tire pressure, resulting in a vehicle crash and possible injury or death.
And like all Drag Racing Radial tires, D.O.T. Drag Radials are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice. It’s also essential these tires be stored indoors at temperatures maintained above 40 degrees F.
D.O.T. Drag Radials feature a special tread compound molded into a "slick" tread design featuring two symmetric circumferential tread grooves. Beginning with just 4.5/32" tread depth, they are ready for competition after being scuffed-in. The tire’s symmetric internal construction features nylon cord casing plies reinforced by two lightweight steel belts and spirally wrapped nylon reinforcement under the tread.
Hoosier's burnout procedure for most cars recommends rolling through the water box to wet the tires. Start the burnout. However, once the tires begin to "haze", slow the burnout and proceed to the start line. The burnout’s goal is to clean all debris off the tires and heat just the surface of the tread. Since most wear to the tread life of a drag tire comes from too much time in the burnout procedure, shorten the burnout time in the water box if you feel you are getting too much wear.
The D.O.T. Drag Radial’s symmetric tread design and internal construction allows them to be installed on either side of the car. Hoosier suggests swapping tires from side-to-side on a regular basis to help smooth out and/or even treadwear. Side-to-side swapping also allows tires to run in both directions, thus causing the tire to wear differently, which helps clean up the tread. The tread surface should have a fine grain or velvet look.
The useful life of a tire, whether mounted or dismounted, is directly affected by storage conditions. Tires should always be stored indoors in a dark, cool, dry room. Remove the tires from the vehicle. Release the air pressure and lay the tires on their sides. Maintain the temperature range in the storage location between 40-90 degrees Fahrenheit. Don't store tires in sub-freezing temperatures for any length of time, as it will cause the rubber to freeze and possible crack.
El neumático D.O.T. Drag Radial de Hoosier pertenece al segmento Radiales Para Arrancones y fue desarrollado para corredores de aceleración que compiten en eventos válidos (sancionados) en pistas locales. Estos neumáticos poseen la tecnología comprobada de carrera y compuestos Hoosier, que los convierte en ideales para competencias de clase que requieren neumáticos legales de carretera.
Ahora se pueden obtener con el logo de Hoosier en el flanco o pared. Este, es pintado utilizando letras blancas sólidas, permitiendo a los pilotos mostrar con orgullo su selección de este neumático de carrera.
ADVERTENCIA: Este neumático NO HA SIDO DISEÑADO CON LA INTENCION DE SER USADO EN AUTOPISTAS. No es seguro utilizar los neumático de carrera Hoosier, inclusive, los DOT Legal en vías públicas. Si son utilizados pueden causar pérdida de tracción y control del vehículo e inesperada pérdida de la presión de aire, todo esto puede causar accidentes con heridas graves o inclusive la muerte.
Como todo neumático del segmento Pista y Competencia DOT, D.O.T. Drag Radial, no fue diseñado para ser utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve. También, es esencial que al almacenar internamente estos neumáticos, la temperatura debe ser mantenida sobre los 40 grados Fahrenheit.
El D.O.T. Drag Radial posee una mezcla de caucho agresiva moldeada en una banda de rodamiento rápida, que cuenta con dos canales circunferenciales simétricos. La profundidad de la huella es de 4.5/32 de una pulgada y están listos para competir, si se ruedan antes del primer uso.
La estructura interna posee una construcción simétrica, que utiliza un armazón radial de nailon y es reforzado con dos correas de acero de peso liviano y una capa de nailon envuelto en espiral, por debajo de la huella.
Hoosier recomienda “quemar” los neumáticos (burnout), a través de la caja con agua, para mojarlos. Inicie el quemado, sin embargo, cuando el neumático empieza a gastarse, realice el quemado con más lentitud y prosiga a la línea de partida. El objetivo del quemado es limpiar toda partícula en el neumático y calentar la superficie. Gran parte del desgaste del neumático sucede en la caja de agua, si cree que los neumáticos se están gastando muy rápido, acorte el tiempo en la caja.
El diseño simétrico de la banda de rodamiento y su construcción interna, les permiten su instalación en cualquier lado del auto. Hoosier recomienda cambiar los neumáticos de lado a lado regularmente para emparejar la banda. También, pueden rodar en ambas direcciones, lo cual causa un desgaste diferente y ayuda a limpiar la banda. La superficie debe lucir como un granulado fino o terciopelo.
La vida útil del neumático, ya este montada o desmontada, se afecta directamente por las condiciones de almacenamiento. Siempre guarde los neumáticos internamente en lugares oscuros, fríos y secos. Libere la presión de aire y acueste el neumático en su lado. Mantenga la temperatura entre 40 y 90 grados Fahrenheit. En ningún momento almacene los neumáticos en temperaturas bajo congelación, ya que, se puede congelar el caucho y rajarse.
