Default gears for 1/4 mile 4.11s and nitrous
so i have a bolt on car with 4.11s and a 26 inch tire stock rev limiter. fixing to install a wet 125 shot will i run out of gear before the quarter and if so could i run a 28 inch tire for my nitrous passes and a 26 for na. the 28 inch tire sucks for na but i was thinking it would do good with the spray.

Don't think a 28 will be enough with nitrous. The calculator I use puts you at 122 @ 6k. I figure you'd trap at least that on nitrous.
