Default Group formed to rescind 1975 9" tire rule!

If you're a current, former or future NHRA Racer with or without dementia and you feel that 9" tires on a Stocker are pure overkill then post your name to this thread or P/M me. OR contact the attending duty nurse. 7" tires should be more than enough!
If you're not interested in commenting then please keep your comments to yourself or in the confines of the nursing home.

The funny thing about this, is if somehow the 7" tire rule was reinstated, no quicker would each tire manufacturer be developing and making 9" wide tires that say 30x7 on the side, making them legal.

I want to add my name to the list, I am a racer who isn't racing, I am a NHRA member, with a car, but not racing until ready. I don't remember if I have dementia or whatever it is. 9" tires are more than enough, I run them with 30 lbs of pressure.
If the fast guys don't know how to get their 500 HP cars hooked, then go to Modified Eliminator. Where is the nurse? If I can't see too good, should I remove my blinder.
Traction control is moving your foot.
Thank you Billy for forming this club, now where are the donuts.

Easy slow pokes.
7 inch tire rule.
How about all stockers must have 8 working spark plugs
Also burnout with front tires illegal
It’s dangerous 😝

The Atlas Bucron 8.20's is a better choice. On a 4" rim like the old days.
