the car weight is 3160 with a 456 gear and we don't need suspension the car was set up a PK RACE CARS out of Columbus thank's for the help we will run a footbrake race this weekend at see what she will do. the motor makes 600 hp and tor is 561 at 4700. do you all think we need more tread on the ground? thanks!!!

Why run with a 9" tire with 600 hp? Stockers do it cuz they have to.

Tim, we got new tires this weekend and we went with 29.1/2 10.1/2 by 15 so I hope that help's. the guy that ownes the car is very tight with his money!!!

Good luck, I hope it works for you. I know I'm amazed at what the A stockers with big blocks do with a 9" tire, but I think some are pulling back timing on launch, and have very good suspension setups and weight transfer/weight placement.
