Race with 17's or 13's??

I'm going to test & tune friday,(or any other day i'm going)
but just need to know,
the only rims I got for this civic is my 17's & my stock 13's.
I plan on selling these 17's for a set of 15's,
but for right now,what would be my best bet on racing at the tracks?

Yeah, the17's will kill your accelration big time, andbesides...with the 13s you can not only get acceleration but if your talking about auto-x then the smaller tires will keep you higher in the rpm range, more toward the powerband.
