I have no personal experience with the bf goodrich. However I ran the Dunlops and was able to pull consistent 1.6-1.7 60' on a track that has poor prepping. You wont be disappointed.

if these are going on a set of wheels just for drag then i would not use either of those because of the harder sidewall. usually harder sidewalls mean more wheel hop and that is not good for the drivetrain.
i would go with et streets because of the soft sidewall and great grip.
now if your using it every day and you daily drive the bfg drag radials are pretty sticky with a softer sidewall.

the point is by the rules of my class here in Ukraine I can`t use ET Street slicks. the only tires aloud are DOT and E. In case I use slick it should have longitudinal and paralleled protector (I am sorry I dont know exact translation from Russiam) but can you advise me a set of tires if ET are not aloud plz?
