no traction even on radials?

Nope. Track nazis wouldn't let me use the waterbox to heat them up...so a 75 shot in first gear = no traction until about 6 grand in 2nd gear. Oh well.

Slipping clutch prolly wasnt helping either though dub

Ok i hear lots of bad things about these tires like they pop axles n stuff, but at the track i c lots people running in them. i hear good things as well as bad just want to know your opinion guys

just the opposite.

azeni's are autox tires. they have super stiff sidewalls which make launches horrible. you will spin the tires before you ever have a problem with axels.

as for them shredding a diff- that's the user's fault. the azeni's are by far one of the best tires i've ever owned. If you want to blame a tire on other parts breaking, you're just another n00b without a clue.

Yeah, but if anything a slipping clutch would mean I should have more traction...not as much power being transferred to the ground.

Hahahaa a n00b....not by far buddy....and no falken azenis are not just autox tires buddy, they are also great drag tires because of thier soft compound. Heat em up and they stick like crazy. Think about this, what happens when your tires dont want to give because of so much traction and transferring power to the ground, when traction doesnt give, mechanical shit does....god there are some irrogant people on this board now...
