I actually just did a back to back. 26” M/T vs 28” Nitto. I did 2 pulls from a dig starting in 2nd launching at 2300 rpms. According to my draggy, the 26” were 2/10’s and 2 mph quicker in the 1/8. Trapping 104+ vs 102. DA was about 5500’.

That all should be because of the gear ratio difference created by the 2 inch shorter tire. Do the calculation and for instance a 3.42 rear gear now turns into a 3.55 or 3.60 gear making the car pull harder from like a 40 to 90 mph pull as you did
