I have never personally found a non-race compound tire to hold power on the street. But if I were to try hard to seek one, I would start with the tires they put on all the factory high power cars, the Michelins. I dont know which... they have several high performance tires and they all have almost the same name so I cant ever keep up which is which. But just look up like what the new Z06 runs and try something like that... at least, that is where I would start my search.

A couple years ago I ran a 11.7 or 11.8 or something like that on the Toyo TQ 315 with my 18x12 wheels.

Ya you are going to have a hard time finding a drag radial for a 19" wheel that has the right diameter for a 370z, because that skinny sidewall is sort of counter-productive. Nitto has some NT05R 19" drag radials that I run on my Mustang, but they are in the 28" diameter range to have some sidewall and that diameter doesnt jive with the 370z, ive tried.
