No one has said anything about upper or lower control arms? YOU GUYS ARE SLIPPING!
krukster did mention that
just practice bro...its tough. the road conditions have a HUGE effect. thats why god created the track. suspension components ie: control arms, springs, struts etc wil help alot also

True, a boxed lower control arm would help some. But it sounds like the primary culprit is your 4.10 gear ratio combined with all season, rock hard, street tires. Stickier, wider tires would help, and a taller gear ratio would help.

How much were they? I am expecting to pay about $200 each. ( plus rims, so I can keep my current tire ready) I would only get two, correct? no need to put them on the front unless I'm going to the track?
Umm they won't do any good on the front even at the track.
LOL...nice.
he probably ment a road corse and then you would not use D/Rs you would get some other tires
It's funny (not really) that you say this, I have seen on this very forum, a member who actually said to use dr's on a road course. Sad so very very sad[]
