Goodrich TA, will this last if used for drag racing

Hi all, would these tires last under drag racing conditions? This would be for a 14 sec. /6. or should I get a high milage tire?

I used them on my Fairlane and depending on track prep they worked pretty good, the car ran 14.0s with some soft 60ft time’s but it wasn’t the tires fault more the stock converter’s. Burnouts are what kills drag tires so keep them short maybe just enough to clean off the tires. 14.second /6 a little optimistic are we? Lol

Due to logistics, all I ever used were BF's on a high 12 second, 2 ton car.
But you really had to walk it off the line, or you'll sit there spinning your wheels.

And yeah a 14 second /6 had better have a lot of NOS.

The /6 is a lot of things to a lot of people but low ETs are not the norm.
