Dragaholic had a 29.5 x 10.5 and went a 1.34 60' with some suspension tuning left to do. He ran a 4.56 gear and shifted at 7,200 RPM.

i wanna run the smallest tire i can get away with and still dead hook..i will be driving mine on the street juss not to work i have another car for that...my car should be pretty light with all the wires and other stuff me and sux2bu cut out...so with the pin on hood speed glass all the way around and the pin on hatch i should be in the 2700's with me in it....

You won't be consistant on 26's if you are launching at WOT off the t-brake.

yeah i can imagine..i ran 26's before my 60's were 1.46's and i would trap 101 mph...this was all off the foot brake..but like your saying the lighter i am the harder it will be to hook...well i picked up a set of 28's for pretty cheap so ill try those...and i think what im gonna do is me and sux2bu are gonna swap 28's and 26's at the track and see what happens..

For it to be a true comparison you have to change gear as well to maintain the same final drive ratio.

ohh last time i swapped tires only and it was a tenth and a half slower... thats was with 4.10's..i never swapped when i had the 4.56's...either way i juss got the 28 10.5 's tires so i guess ill try them out and see what happens

If you change your tires without changing your gear, your final drive ratio also changes which will affect how "quickly" the car will want to accelerate..
