Maybe because they don't run against any other cars in stock they have there own class or because with 1400hp on a 9 inch tire half the time they smoke the tires and put on a lousy show. Or it is just not that safe running 170-180 mph in 7.something seconds on that size tire there have already been to many crashes in that class. There are a lot of reasons to keep the 9 inch tire but there are also many reasons to go bigger I think safety should be a concern.
