9" tires are fine, IMO.

The 10.5 tire was allowed mainly for the higher HP cars in AA and A, etc at the time as the southern IHRA tracks some of these races are held on are not the higest caliber in the traction dept.

Past tense. Even by the time I joined IHRA 9 years ago, I think they were already putting that old legend behind them. The 'popular image' of the condition of IHRA tracks from way back when is an outdated misconception today. I'll take my 9" M/T radial down any IHRA track without hesitation.
Back to naming the organization, remember that it doesn't *have* to be an acronym. "ProStar" for instance, is a motorcyle racing organization. You define what *you* want, and do the branding & marketing to give it life & meaning.
