Default Please Help squirly rear end '99 Cobra

I've done a ton to my 1999 cobra (bout 85k into it) have 600 hp, but I can't take it to the track because I get too much sway in the rear end at about 105mph if I stay on the gas. I thought it was because of the air ride suspension, so I swapped the rear back to springs and it did nothing whatsoever. I have 18" wheels and I've heard that could possibly be an issue, but I have my doubts.
Anyone have any ideas for me? I wanna go get a 1/4 mile time at the track, but I won't be able to until I solve this problem. Thanks for your help.

Mike

I would say hold off on the SRA for now. Do all the bushings and brace and try that out OP. If that don't work then consider a SRA swap.

Anyone know part numbers I should order? I'm a stereo guy, so I have to rely on other people's knowledge for the other parts of the car.
