Ha..They are probably the ones who could handle it best, with all the trickery they have.
10% throttle , 0 deg. timing..all in by 1000' mark.

Maybe a few wagon combos could handle 7" tires
W.A. Lee, 350 /2bbl, used the old Jr Stock Firestone dot 5's when 9 inchers were legal.
He'd run them at about 30-35 psi, stand on the converter, WFO, and just let go of the brake. Won quite a bit that way..

I think my old R/Stock wagon is still around in PA. somewhere.. 7 " SEGA spec Hoosiers.. Hmmm I think it would work ;-)
