I'd imagine an Autocross tire would be useful since they are designed to work without getting very hot - unlike a road racing tire such as the MPSC.

Road race tires generally have a stiff sidewall which is what you dont want for straight line traction. Ever see a slick wrinkle on launch? That is absorbing a great deal of the impact. This along with the soft compound is what tire makes are trying to close in on with the drag radials

I don't use the MPSC's as they take a loooong time to warm up. The compound is super hard. Try Toyo RA-1s... that's what I use and I can pull some crazy 60foots
