Largest slick and wheel that will fit a GN ?

Hay Sam try 30 psi in that right rear air bag, the car may come out more level and keep that front driver side wheel on the ground which may improve your 60 fts.
Don't know for sure but when I pull low 1.5's (i.e. 1.53 to 1.49's) my car just raises up and no one has ever told me drifferent. Both wheels are still on the ground and the rear end is level, front end close to level.

The wheel up "LOOK's KOOL" but I have been told the shortest distance between two points is a straight line and not an arc. PS: but seriously you may be unloading a tire which is not a good thing for sixty foots.

Sam,
Nice launch with your car. All good info. Which wheel do you use, can't make out in photo. I use 8 wide with 4" backspace no rub.
The burn out I do is one quick turn in the water box , pull forward and light them up, when good and smokey roll it forward until tires grab and drive up to line.

The rear wheel is a 15 x 8 WELD DragLite Wheel with a 3.50” back spacing part # 90-58346.

I used this wheel with both the 27 x 11.50 and the 28 x 10.50 Hoosier tires. Plenty of room even with the car being lowered.

BTW. 25 lbs. In the right rear air bag seemed to hook up the best for me. The higher air pressures made the rear of the car bounce up and down after launch then finally settle itself out after it passed the 60’ mark. I know many others running 30 psi in that right rear bag, didn't seem to work for me though. Maybe because the car has lowering springs in the rear. I do think an air bag spacer would of helped keep it more level though.

The picture was taken at Norwalk last year, that is my wife behind the wheel.

Sam,
Will try raising pressure in right rear air bag, had mine at 20 psi right and 5 psi left.
Blazer,
The only way that my wife would drive like that would be if I was under the car
