      Do you have large rotors on the rear as well? If you can run 16" or 17" on the rear in a drag radial, that will help out a bunch.

      If you have double adjustable struts set the front rebound to full soft and the rear jounce to full hardness and that will help too.

      A few guys I know road race with BFG Drag t/a's on all 4 corners with AWD cars and swear they will never go back to R compound Sport Comp tires again because they cost double and don't perform better enough to justify the cost.

      They also tell me that the Drag Radials pull them out of the hole after the apex with alot less chirping and violence than the hard core R compounds saving them from breaking parts. (these guys go to Knox's Mountian a fair amount)

        drag radials are not designed to corner....

        they may "feel" fast but they aren't, they have straight line performance in them only.
