Lower your tire pressure 20ish psi.

NT555R2s are good tires, but 19s? You should be on 17s with a real side-wall for 700hp+
Ok, I will lower tire pressure and re-align. Ordered SPL toe arms just for my peace of mind. 17’s are on my plans.

I really hate to be this guy, but as someone who has lost friends and family to doing stupid shit in fast cars/bikes on the street, please consider bringing your car to the drag strip. At least this way if something goes wrong you're in a much safer/controlled environment with safety, rescue, and medical personnel on site.

Thanks man, appreciate it. I don’t do street racing or at least not street racing meets. I do roll race and 1/2 mile official events. Usually in airports and other controlled environments with all safeties. When I say I don't do drag I mean launching on prepped surfaces.

Is there any suspension, KW, HKS that would do me good? Purchased SPL toe arms, traction bar and Cusco sway bar since were are going to be there.

My car gets loose because she’s built for tracking, back on street tires and it definitely takes skill I don’t have. Now if I’m already rolling, watch out lol. Even then, she’ll still get loose because I hate nannies. I always turn them off so I can control the car.

Really cool what y’all are doing with these cars on the drag strips 🏁🏁 Crazy specs too!
