Look for 235/60/15 Drag Radial also,
its another small tire class that is going
places.

I gotta say that I am suprised that "Dedicated to Saftey" NHRA allows this "small tire" big power racing to happen on a NHRA santioned track. I`ve seen some of this 1500+HP 10.5" tire racing, and frankly, much of it is an accident waiting to happen. If they are not blowing the tires off on the starting line, they are swapping lanes or smacking the concrete walls with far too much regularity. The same thing with many stock chassied, street tired late model Mustangs and such, equipped with big boost or nitrous, and a young driver with no brains. too often there is fluid & chunks on the track, or paint rubs on the concrete!
