Decreasing tire diameter by almost 2" will change the #'s all the way down the track and will be trapping at a higher RPM.

1/8 mile so no biggie. Wouldn't be able to run them on a 1/4 mile though. I'm already going through the traps with the shift light on.

I think I got in on that Scamp ad too. I made a comment about Mike being a little overbearing. Got a nice little PM. I had to call out the injustice! Lol

Thanks man! The ad is completely gone now. A little bit of tact goes a long way. I know the moderators have a thankless job but some of them act like they need a vacation themselves. lol

I think it's a good track to experiment on though.

Bill my dakota is not making near as much power as your duster. But I ran my best time last year going from a 28x10.5x15 MT pro bracket radials. Which on my dakota woukd just spin most of the way through first gear. I think 7.15 was my best 1/8 pass. They had a close to half tread when I put them on. The last race of last year I found a guy selling a brand-new never raced on MT 295/65/15 ET Street R Radial tires. With the 295 my best pass last year was 7.12 in the 1/8.

The drag radials I have are MT 295/55’s. I’m going to try them out this weekend.

Cool hope you get a new best. Looks like I might get to try out my tunnelram this Saturday. Aslong as it don't rain. But I doubt I will get a good new beat. Soposed to be hot and humid Saturday

We were the first ones there (right behind my buddy Brian) and the last ones to leave. Had a great weekend hanging out with my family and FABO brothers, @MOPARMAGA, @19DUSTER73 and @lead69 (@Newbomb Turk couldn’t make it and I was bummed because I was going to try and get another hug from him lol).

Awesome weekend and despite the heat, Fred ran fantastic. I made it to the finals on Friday night and the third round Saturday so I’m pleased. Finally getting comfortable with the car and gaining confidence so hopefully I’ll start winning some races. Oh, and my buddy Brian won Saturday and got a Wally!

It was good to see you and everyone else as well Bill. I thought I would have more time to hang out but it seems if I'm not wrenching I'm not at the track lol. Awesome time and really looking forward to Woodburn!
