my home track wont let me use the weld lugnuts because they cover the end lug. if you run at the track, check with them before you go buying them.

9's or 10's are not the issue. Page 84 section 5:1 of 2008 NHRA rules. Not so much open end lugs as it is being able to demonstrate that you have proper thread engagement with the lug nut. If you take the lug nuts off and show proper thread engagement for all 20 (or 25) no propblem, big pain in the ass and time consuming. Open enders solve that issue. Local tracks may require them to make inspections easier. Remember, it's for safety reasons.
