If you're using a seperate set for racing then consider going down to a 15x7" rim and running 225/50/15's. You can reduce your unsprung weight significantly.

Do NOT get the V700's or A032R's, they are autox tires and are not meant to be dragged on. They will not grip a whole lot better in a straight line then a street tire. Plus as you heat cycle them they will lose more and more grip. Get some drag radials. They are meant for drag racing.
I agree on getting some 15x7 rims.
