Haven't seen anybody used the Hoosiers. I have 2 friends with M/T drag radials. One friend has a 10 second 91 GT and they hook that thing hard. Another friend has a mostly stock 04 Gt vert that goes mid 13's with only suspension and tires and exhaust. He pulls 1.6-1.7's 60ft times. They both love them.

I have not used Hoosers so I can't say my MT are better but I sure like the MT's. My car hooks hard. I am getting a 1.6 sixty at a properly prepared track.

Personal preference... Tried both... both hook extremely well.

Personally and I dont know exactly why, but seeing a car fitted with Hoosiers just looks 10X more intimidating IMHO. But its a personal preference. I believe Hoosiers cost a bit more that Mickey's though
