Its not available commercially from Michelin (BFgoodrich distributor) in Malaysia.
I've looked for a lot of tires with fantastic grip and none of the Bfgoodrich tires available locally up to my expectation.
The current top line Bfgoodrich in Malaysia is gForce Profiler
Only in the US to they have to extreme Bfgoodrich models.
Of course if you got a lot of money anything goes.

Most drag tires are used stuff they use during the drag battles. If you frequent such places, I'm sure you can get good contacts

However you can try the market place:

Prepare a lot of money.

man...I hit a red brick laying on the road with my AD07 while cornering hard...it was early morning windscreen was flogged..couldn't see it until very close...good news is I'm still alive...bad news is the AD07 survived it but has a huge bulge at the side...I'm using the tires for the rears now but sadly, its a goner cause it doesn't feel good at cornering at all.

How did your car survive this? This happened to me while I was on Falken Azenis fronts, imagine it's the left tire, I'm taking a left sweep and the brick was "flung" upwards toward the right ngam ngam hitting my front sway bar permanently damaging it. AND the tire gave way shortly after..

Look on the bright side
