Would your engine fit the Illini Racing Series rules? They run pavement tracks: South Bend, Grundy (sometimes), Rockford, Dells, & others. You could prolly put a RF brake on & make some other changes, and maybe run in the top 5. Lots of times they have tires to offer.

You can always run with Badger, plenty of D2 legal cars have won features with Badger last cpl of years
