Sorry to hear of your crash. Glad both of you emerged unscathed. I look forward to seeing footage of the front tires popping. Hate to be the one who says "I told you so...", but the pro-touring ethos of BALANCE applies to your top end car as well. Is there any reason NOT to run a 235 or 245 front tire as standard equipment? Would they really hurt E.T's at all? A tenth or two?

I'd be interested in seeing you guys make a coupla 8 second passes Some on pizza cutters and some on wider tires--not too wide. I'm curious because we are about to update a pro streeter at my shop with some pro-touring equipment. As we improve the "streeter" side of the equation, we will take away from the "pro" side. The hard part is finding a balance.

Sorry for being critical, but I really wanna know: Would somewhat wider front tires really hurt E.T.s or make the car hard to drive at the drags?
