Spool are great for drag racing. Not much other kind of driving.

Spools do not allow the back wheels to rotate at different ('differential') speeds on a turn and thus can cause potentially dangerous problems turning, worse if the pavement is wet. They also stress wheel studs on turns.

There are guys that will say that is all crap, spools are fine. I politely disagree based on my experiences and the professionals I have talked to over the years. Not anecdotal stories from the internet. YMMV

Give percentages how much street vs strip. 50/50? 99%/1%? Be honest. Also no auto-x intentions at all right, true street/strip?
