If your going to spray off the line just put slicks on it and be done with it.

Have not decided... Pretty sure that will count it in for the rear.. If I don't blow through the converter it should be a solid 1.3 60'.
I have slicks now.. 26X10X15

Can anyone explain why a 28" would let you ET better than a 26" if you dead hook on both? I always thought hooking them up you would always ET better (mph less) with a shorter tire and ET worse (mph better) with a taller tire.

I'm just confused I guess! I want the best tire!!!!!!!!!!!! (I know I know.. There is no "best"!)

Take a look at this thread it may help it has the 1/8 mile info that I learned so far!!

I have two set's of wheels for out back so I am going to put the 26"s on one set and bring the 26" and 28" tires to the track and see what the difference will be. Mounting the 26"s this weekend so I may have some times after Saturday night. I will post them up if so. And thanks for all the input.
