Billy, I am glad this thread was an April Fool's Day joke, because I'd have comments/issue's with all three of James' comments:
1. The slicks that were on "Shark Bait" when I won the D7 LODRS divisional in October 2020, as well as the Arizona Stock/Super Stock Association combo race (both in 2022, and 2023), were 22×8×15.
2. If you "James" didn't put that laughing emoticon in your post, I would've thought you feel like many who might wish all FWD, and 4-6cyl Stockers would be banned from Stock (never mind the fact that several OEM car engine combos from the Muscle Car era, wouldn't run away and hide from my Z24 Cavalier that's still headerless)! Moreover, when Stock was really Stock, and not more like Super Stock from the '80 & '90's, even the slower V8 classes couldn't easily outperform my car! To those who still feel that way, I will say the same thing "The Grinch said to the Who's in Whoville, "BOO WHOOOOOOOO"!!!!
3. Because M/T stopped making those tires, I stopped doing burnouts. So you won't see me doing any front wheel burnouts with those tires again. Besides, another reason I don't do them is because the water patch is too big (what happened to a smaller patch and the racer doing a brief spin to wrap the water around his/her tires,, then pulling forward?)! I needed dry pavement for my parking brake to hold my rear tires in place while I did my burnouts (circa the Book "How to Drag Race, page 33 featuring my car starting a burnout that was far more massive than the picture indicated)!
