Default blue's rim & tire drag setup and track times

snapped a couple of pics at the track yesterday of the setup.
it consists of 15x8 Pacers widened to 15x10.5 with 6.5" backspacing and some mickey 29.5's.

all runs were done in full street trim (4425 lbs with me)
i knew i would slow down on motor (et wise) going up 2" in tire size, but would probably gain mph. here is the break down...

went 12.91@105.22 1.76 60' not bad considering i can take out 300 lbs.

i was running bracket so once i got eliminated i ran a nitrous run to see what it would do. i was so happy with the results i threw it on the trailer after that one run.

with the 75 shot coming on @ 2800 it went 11.95@112.54 1.64 60'
that's a full second drop in et and 7 mph!

the tread sits pretty flush, it's just the sidewall that bulges out a little. it would look perfect with a set of 295/65 dr's.

Damn it I wish I could get them pacers in a 16 with the same Bsing. I would run them.. But then finding a tire that is 29 in would be a PITA.. Looks good.. I likey
