Nowhere in my comment about the downside of radials (that they either dead hook or spin) did I say or even imply that MY CAR spins the tires. Read the post again and you'll see that. I made a general observation, based on numerous comments made by other racers, over the years. I have encountered radial wobble and learned that it does seem to vary somewhat by track, is related to track prep (to a degree), can be lessened or worsened with Phoenix tires and is definitely related to chassis set-up. In my case, I was able to tune most of it out by properly baslining the chassis adjustments and then gradually tightening the rear shock settings. Bigley, I don't CARE what your car does, how quick/fast it is or how long you've been running radials. If you can't be civil and offer helpful opinions and experiences, for Christ's sake, stop posting. Industry people who know you are aware of the fact that you have a wealth of knowledge and that most of what you state is accurate, so why don't you offer that knowledge in a helpful way? Ed, thanks for the suggestion; I know your heart's in the right place. Later.
