Don't they have a Friday night heads up deal 10" tire?

I talked to Lil Jack about it and need to find out more about it . It's a normal track event for them I think?

[PONTIAC DUDE]

Here ya go. It's the same Friday as the Pontiac Event. May 18th.

We can do battle with the locals.

Thanks

so what size drag radial is allowed to a power added bigblock, looks like a 10.5"wide by 30"tall, what size is that, not the 315x60 wright??.

[LiL Jack]

It looks like a 12" wide radial.

[PONTIAC DUDE]

Let's go hammer the local boys and show em



Who's in da house.

1/8 Mile finish line???? Did I read that right?

[cls]

On second thought this might be more fun than running heads up against a bunch of Pontiacs.....we get to try and beat up other brands ...that works for me...I will be there early Fri with my boys from Charlotte...

looks like a 295 x 65 r15 drag radial, unless you are going to run naturaly aspirated lil jack?? it says 10.5" wide dot or slick for a power adder.

If you put up 2500.00 and Zeek puts up 1000.00 I will put up 1000.00 so long as we get a minimum of 8 cars....winner take all, all cars must weigh the same, 1 power adder only, 10.5 tire only.

Why don't the guys who are pounding thier chests put the money up? If you think your that bad and can take all the money then "PUT UP OR SHUT UP"! I had someone crying because they had to pay the event entry fee to run the race.

There's alot of logic there.

I run a 295 DR M/T.

been 8.92's on a soft leave with a 1.58 60 ft'er back in 2005.

I'll be entering.

[ponchospidel]

so i can read(as lil jack can not, must be all the hot air((exhaust gassess)) that will let him run NA) a 295 X 65 x 15 mickey tompson drag radial is as big as you can run??.

[Brian Baker]

OK, here's my interpretation on the tire rules:

1.) If you are running a power adder, you are limited to a 10.5" wide (measured at the tread) by 30" tall tire, regardless if it is a slick or a radial.

2.) If you are naturally aspirated, you can run any height tire you want, but the width is limited to 10.5" for a slick and 12.0" for a radial (measured at the tread).

3.) All tires must carry a DOT rating.

Make sure your tire measures up as listed and there'll be no problems.

[PONTIAC DUDE]

I sent an e-mail to the VMP tech director with the following questions. Will post when i get a result.


The tire rule.
1: What size M/T drag radial is allowed. I run a 295/65/15. Are 315’s allowed ?
2: Do you have to run a DOT ET Street type tire only or are 10.5 X 29.5 X 15 M/T slicks allowed ?
3: Does this class require a diaper?
4: Does the car have to be taggged or insured for this class?
5: I see 1/8th mile right?

[ponchospidel]

thanks, ken! looking at buying some of those drag radials, just can't afford to by the wrong size.
