If i'm not mistaken they put that rule in place to deter the guys that are running 30x15 tires. Maybe they would let you run if you ran a tire that would fit under a mini-tub?

Already been in GMHTP (and a couple others), it's not a big deal. Win Indy is well over ten grand besides the "Wally". Much, much harder to win however.
Hope you guys have a great time.

That's a lot of money to win, plus contingency too i'm sure. There will always be a conflict with some NHRA or IHRA event, there's simply no way to avoid it. They choose Labor Day weekend because most folks are off on Monday so it gives them some extra time to get home, especially for the long-haulers with 15+ hour trips. Good luck at Indy!
