So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

They are drag tyres. Soft sidewalls reduce shock loadings to the contact patch, which = much better traction.

Wouldnt fancy going round corners too fat in em though lol.

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.

Those fuelers achieve a huge change in gearing just by the difference in tyre diameter at the start and at 300mph.

They dont go round corners on a front drive car, have tried them on my five! They are brilliant on the strip though!

Top fuelers also have a clutch which allows for infinismal increments of slip the whole way up the strip until it locks up near the top end leaving a 1:1 drive through a tall diff. It's a nice set up but the clutch is changed out every run! Rather expensive!
