I take it your spraying??? Then I wouldn't go too much gear or you would have to go taller tire to get through the traps. What MPH do you trap in 1/8 and 1/4 now?

The 370 sounds good for the 26's anything bigger and you'll probably need a 28in tire. But to me, it sounds like what you have is working. How does it launch without the spray?
