Glad to see the front tire minimum set at 26"

Good change, the taller tires are period correct. We ran a pro lite at Chandler the last two years and a couple of guys were running rubber bands, cars were practically dragging on the ground, it was ugly. Also the tire size is weight specific.

The wide, low profile tires are ugly (and even uglier in NSS!).
My Hoosier 24" front runners are on the Malibu, only because the tire specs, listed them as the same size as the 185 VW tires I replaced. WRONG! They were a lot shorter than the VW tires.
I'll be "legal" by race time. Gonna put on some 26" M&H front runners. They are the only "race" front tire that's DOT approved. Several "street" classes are now requiring DOT tires for the front also.
One more thing to be legal, I'll be doing....replacing my highly UNSAFE seat belts, that are over 24 months old. NHRA thinks they will unravel in 25 months!
