Just to clarify, I don't want drag radials, just wider UHP tires. I used to own a Viper with 355's and that had a lot more traction (granted car was lighter too).

Totally different chassis and made less HP and torque than a stock Blackwing much less a modified Blackwing. A 355 street tire isn't going to give you the traction you're hoping for. I had 335 Michelin Pilot Super Sport street tires on the back of my 1000hp Hellcat and they wouldn't hook up on the street anywhere below 80mph, I could literally do fish tails on the highway. However, a set of 315 Nitto 555R2 drag radials would hook on the car at 40mph.

I would expect that in a truck with no weight over the rear end. You can get away with a bit more power in a heavier car, especially with a longer wheelbase like a 4 door Cadillac. My Hellcat Challenger made just over 1000hp, 892whp and it would hook up on 20" Nitto 555R2 drag radials above 40mph in warm weather when the tires were warmed up but it would blow the tires off the car above 80mph on street tires. I do agree though, you just have to practice and learn what the car can and can't handle and drive accordingly.

I do agree with you. I had a 20 gallon fuel cell located behind the axle, relocated battery as well as a four link to help in the traction department.
