Thats a real good comment but the reason I am going to cut up mine is because its mine. I want to make it how I want it, not buy one that was built to someone else's standards. Also I think a Monza has a little bit more room for tires than a vega.10secvega wrote:I'm not trying to bash you,but why cut up a good Vega,when you could have bought one of thousands already tubbed.On a 26 x 8.5 x 15 slick,we've gone 9.80's by the way.
And on a side note a smaller tire should get up to speed a little faster than a big tire.Sirshredalot wrote:Lots of guys forget that it doesnt take a really big tire to go fast.
Look at the nitrous street car guys as well as the 10.5 outlaw cars.
Running 9's and 8's on a 10 inch tire....most of them only 28" tall or less.
Its all in the way you setup your chassis.
Plus when you run a large tire you have to compensate with gear ratio, so instead of 31" and 4.56 gears....try a 28" with 4.10's or 26" with 3.73's.
God bless

Not trying to bash either but why would you cut up a good car??
I went 9.30's on a hoosier DOT 26x9.50-15 which is 8" tread. Also did it with factory stock torque arm suspension and a sbc on spray at 3200 lbs
