Dodge Demon

there's a burnout portion in the video, I don't know if it would be awd doing a burnout like that, less than can switch the tcase

If you stop the video and look at the burnout marks on the pavement it looks like more than two tires. Just sayin.
 
You still have to give the car the ability to handle a little bit to sell it in production. Betting 4 drag radials are to keep it from under steering like a dump truck.
 
On the topic of AWD speculation and the fact the new video is a massive burnout. I'm not suggesting you should do this, but if you brake stand a car with an active Borg Warner t case such as that in the Charger/Challenger/CTS/ATS you can do a burnout with the rear wheels without disconnecting anything.

It is also easy to disconnect module power and do a burnout.

I did pause at the end. The marks do have some oddities for a pure RWD burnout. It could just be marks from multiple takes or something though or maybe some wide to side movement of the car as it creeped forward during the burnout.
 
yeah that tazer tool I have for the dodges, turns off awd mode, just by a menu function. Its done very easily electronically, so maybe they added this to this car if it was awd

If you don't have special tools you can just unplug the module or unplug the clutch coil at the t case to get it to RWD too.

You don't need to shut off the AWD to do a burnout still but I'm not going to say you'll have a t case for long if you don't, LOL.
 
Aren't the NT05 the normal more road-race oriented tires and the NT05R the drag radial?

The chrysler engineer a couple doors down said you can just pull a fuse.
 
Everything I'm reading online is it is RWD only. So why put equal fat radials on all 4 corners. It's way easier for Dodge instead of developing a staggered set up. As the drag racer/consumer I see it as a huge gift. You are essentially getting 2 sets of drag radials. First thing I would do is buy skinnies for the front and save the OEM's to replace the rears when they wear. Refresh and replace over and over. The opposite of what we all do now, which is replace the rears with new wheels/tires. So basically you are getting 2 sets of rears. Or you can just drive around on all fatties. It will look bad ass that way for sure!
 
if the OE ones have the Demon logo in the rubber like the picture shows....i would pull those off and set them aside.

Also a 315/40 is a taller tire than your typical 315/35....Plus do the Nitto's still run narrow?
