73 Duster build named Fred

Race coming up at Bremerton (1/8 mile track) this Saturday. I am thinking of running a 28" tall drag radial instead of my 29x10.50 (29.8 x12.50 actual) slick. Thinking if I can hook up, the car should 60' better.

Thoughts?

I would love to run a radial on mine just to set a new best and try them out. They are definitely quicker especially over my 14-32 slick. If I ever get my other car running I may be able to borrow the wheels and tires for an experiment.
