And I run a 28 13.50 et street in a stock wheel well, not stretched or mini tubbed.

I know a race will never happen at this point but… because you did a “hack job” by taking a sledge hammer to your car to run a 28x13.5” tire that sticks out past the fender you’re at some sort of disadvantage to someone who properly clearanced their wheel wells to be able to run, say, a 28x11.50 that tucks under the car? (I’m just guessing NK’s tire size based on those videos…) I understand not wanting to line up with back-half cars on steam rollers but declining a race with a car that otherwise sits like yours because of some wheel well modifications seems a bit strange. Whether it be taking a hammer and STRETCHING your wheel wells or taking a cut-off wheel and properly clearancing them, the result is exactly the same.
And again, if some miracle occurs and this race happens I will put up a few bucks on JS’s side just to help get the pot up. Hell, I’ll even race you for a few bucks if you come down here – I’m an f-body with stock wheel wells on pump gas and a 27x10.5” QTP… Easy money for you.
