I might be going to a grass drag event on December 5th and I am wondering which of the following tires would work the best? As far as I know I can't run any studs. The track is 500' long and the starting area will be hard-packed dirt (clay).
22x11-10 Stock Holeshots
22x10-9 Maxxis 4-Snows
22x12-10 Mud Machines
22x11-10 Maxxis All-Traks
This is an example photo of the track.

I could also pick up a set of these 25x12-9 Nanco Trail Claw tires for $80 shipped and have them in time. They would weigh around 22 lbs each mounted. I am not sure yet how round the tread of the tire would get on a 9x9 wheel.

It seems like from the tires I already have, the 4-Snows or the Holeshots would grab the best at the start but I don't know how the traction will be with the 4-Snows once I get onto the grass. The downside of the Holeshots is that they are heavy. The 4-Snows are only 15 lbs on the wheels.
