I can't believe that they did this on only 5 tyres and they were Bridgestone Comp T/A street tyres?!? Amazing.

I suppose they were BF Goodrich ones

Remember these cars had fixed distributor timing with mechanical injection, race boost was closer to 1.3 qualy boost was 1.5 bar , most of the lag was due to the crude ignition and fuel mapping (by today's standard) short intake runners where used to get the T/Q as early as possible.
