Wishful thinking, believe me...our class [and especially the FAST class above us] is the masters of killing bottom end power and moving elsewhere, and those huge ports still make enough grunt down to make things interesting to the 330' mark (and beyond, sometimes!)...

Listen to Eric, he's giving you great advice...with decent tires & hook this should be a no brainer.
