Ed, my friend, I respectfully disagree, in order to get down the track...you do what you have to do. You and I run about the same?...launch RPM and high gear retard are essential.
The notion of big tires takes all of the "want a be" racers out of it...that is wrong.
Keep it 9 inch and watch the results..About the time you turn it to a 14 or 15 inch tire......it is all over. My 2 cents
