It's gotta be a 1/4, he spun pretty hard but it was still rolling the hell out. I bet it was still a 1.45 60'.. With 159 traps, you could go 8.69 with a low 1.4x 60' I think..

Car probably has 8.50s in it on a dead hook.

I want to know what's in it...

After watching vid on computer instead of phone I can believe it. Spins but doesn't blow the tires off and it's definitely rolling out.
