Brent Sands’ goal is to be ready for the small tire battlefield of Rowdy Radial at Sick Summer Presented by Motion Raceworks next year. “Took me close to three years to finish the last one, so it’s going to be hard to get this one done in a year. At least I have most of the parts.”
Can the Rowdy Radial Class Survive Without Rules, or Is It Finally Time For Some Standards on the Tiny 235 Tire?
Both Rocky Mountain Race Week and Sick the Mag event rules for the Rowdy Radial class are simple: 235 sized tire (26-inches tall and 8.5-inches in width), and an eighth-mile distance format. No suspension requirements, no weight minimum, run what ya brung and hope you brought enough. But with increased performances and shrinking fields at some events, is it time for an updated ruleset?

“Sick Week 2024 was my first time competing (in a drag-and-drive) and it was truly a dream come true. Probably back to middle school, I used to drive my teachers insane for a week out of every September where I would do nothing but watch the Hot Rod Drag Week live feed. I’ve followed this stuff forever, and always wanted to build something to compete.”

Entering its eighth year on a multitude of platforms, the 235 tire continues to gain interest and new competitors. The 26-inch-tall x 8.5-inch width tire may have originally gotten a home with mostly 5-second rides on the eighth-mile standard, but it’s pushed several rides into the 4-second zone in 2023 and 2024.
