MT ET Streets question?
Well I will be at the drag strip next friday and wanted to ask a quick question. I went with the MT ET Streets with the welds prostars. And I installed them and was just trying them out around the country side to see how they are and they seem really unstable at high speeds I made a quick 0-85-0 run then tryed to slow down and it felt like one side of my sway bar fell off. I Guess I am just a little nervis about taking them to the track. I might be trapping in the 120's that night and i'm a little worried about the wobble at high speeds. Any advice?

Rule of thumb...
Bias ply on the rear, then use a bias ply (skinnies) on the front and you won't have a problem.
If you try to run a radial on the front, then the faster you go, the more unstable it will be.

I tell people driving on slicks is like watching the cop chase with the guy who has a flat. Stay WOT and your fine, let off and it gets wobbly. Its the nature of the slicks, right before my first TN run on them I was weary, but no worries you should be able to hold on, you just need to build confidence

Yeah maybe I just need to get used to them. It feels kind of like driving a big old cadalac lots of wobble in the rear. Thanks for the input, Might want to try skinnies.
