Yes but that only applies to a Super Street Class car, not an ET bracket car.

When I brought this question up at the Div. 3 Tech seminar. I asked just that question and they said go to S/Street, and find it there. I tried to get the book changed but to no avail. NHRA's official answer was 11"min. on ALL full bodied cars, regardless of class!
 This is why I posted this tip because of what I feel is a mistake in the book in not printing a min. size in each catagory.. Ya win some and ya lose someWhen usure ask.

Division 7 does not think that. Super Street, and the specifications that go with Super Street are only specific to Super Street. There are specific specifications in every class that are in direct conflict with the Basic Specifications.
If you consider this as gospel, that 11 inch is the minimum because the Super Street specification says so then how does Funny Car, Top Fuel get away with a butterfly steering wheel. How, because it specifically says so in the Funny Car and Top Fuel Specificaton. Nope the 11 inch only applies to the Super Streer Class. Personally, I would not run anything smaller than 11 inch in a door slammer. Ron

Floppers and dragsters are not considered full bodied cars.I Don't the write gospel just sing it. Out there in 7, ask your Div. Tech and I'll bet they will tell you they don't know what size wheel is permitted in ET. That is why I researched it for a racer, that asked me, that question. Boy did I open a can of worms. Oh well, rules changes have to be in by June, so I guess I'll have to try one more time to get the book clarified.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
