I think all that extra tire height is gonna kill your car. You are giving up a bunch of torque multiplication.

Unless you are doing something like changing rear gears or adding a bunch of power to compensate you are fighting against your own cause. The idea of drag racing is to be quick, not fast. You have to pick up a ton of MPH in the traps to make up for losing just a little ET in the first half of the track.
