Thanks, that was with 20' Drag Radials. I hope to do a bit better with the new Drag Wheel setup. Will post it up when I know. May be able to get some runs in soon if the weather is clear around here.

I got to run with the new wheel & tire setup. I picked an average of 0.2 sec for the 1/8 mile ET and been running 1.5 sec 60' as well. I'm pretty satisfied with the wheel & tire change. Going to be running a 100 octane tune with 100 octane Sunoco 260 GT Race Fuel in the next couple days to see if that helps.

Next time I take the wheels off I will weigh them as well.

Good work. I need to order some 20inch drag radials. Stock goodyear's only got me a 2.5 60 ft.

I know it's been a little while since you asked but I finally got around to weighing the wheels. You can see the results below.
