Default Fastest FWD on a 25 Inch tire..

I was thinkin about it today, and im just curious if anyone who knows who has gone the fastest in a fwd car on a 25 inch slick. I think this can get good, Believe it or not, most hot rod cars as of 3-4 years ago used to run 25's and as they are a very popular tire today, im curious to see whop has gone the fastest on them, in a honda or even a NON Honda... I know Jason Hunt went 9.5, but i think that there were some earlier racers to run fast on em, just kinda curious, anyone?

Yup Chris... 9.40 at 157mph with 24.5x9.5x13's and we went 9.71 at something like 148-149ish mph with the 22x9.5x13's.

When we ran the 22's and went 9's...the wheeliebars were not really operational. They would bend right up. We also had stock shocks on the car from when the car was built in 91. 1 of the back ones was absolutly blown. So we had stock struts and just a set of Eibach lowering springs. That car 60ft'd around 1.55's...I wish I had that car back!!
