Scott at PCI said the teams will not recieve them until May and run them at the 500 in June.

I thought McMillien was running them?

I thought that the Class 1 buggies who chose to run larger tires normally ran 35's. I agree that those on McMillin's buggy look larger, but maybe they are just the 37's (which look large on a buggy)? I don't know. I would have expected BFG to test them on something large, like the Collins Trophy Truck, or the Herbst 4x4 - something really heavy.

what size wheels is that class 1 running? They look pretty narrow

A suburban might not be as good as a truck, but it comes damn close with 8 people in it
