Mini spools and spools have one problem in street cars as you turn corners one tire turns more that the other. This results in one tire slipping which causes excessive tire wear. In oval track racing cars this is over come by running stagged tire diameters (take a dixie cup and lay it on its side and roll it The cup will roll in a circle) I had a 1969 GTO I used to drive on the street and drag race the car felt very twitchy on decelleration kind of scary at 130mph. I have welded spider gears nothing worse than being on the pole and spinning out because they let go and 15 cars coming straight at you. That will make you pucker up the seat cover a bit.
