Try putting one of these under the gas pedal, it also works really well in rain and snow

Lots of traction...

Bikes and trucks racing together?

Not a good idea for the bikes.

grgreves, in the UK not sure where you could get 16in rims. The only thing I can think of is the spare tire rim, but I dont think it is wide enough.

anyone else have any ideas?

Road Rash, ah heck out in the country they let everything run together!!!

I use American Racing Baja 16X10" wheels with M/T ET Streets but the next new drag tire will be the Hoosiers although the M/Ts got me into the 12s. D/k if there is a UK Racing wheel company '
