At one time I know that John Calvert raced his Super Stock Cobra Jet 428 Mustang on 9" tires... with a clutch car. That was his development platform for CalTracs, too.


That’s correct about Calvert.
If you can get it to hook at the start (with today’s tire tech) no reason to drag a large tire at the big end.
And smaller slicks cost less too
