i am just thinking of next year trying to get in on some bracket racing and some heads up races. And most all that is 1/8 mile. U want to run 1/4 mile get a 30 inch tire for 1/4 mile only.

you could just drop to 3.55 so that way you still have some umph for the 1/8th but have the speed for the 1/4
