    I've emailed Calvert and asked them questions about the leafs because my car is for street and strip I live 30 minutes from two drag strips. He said they'll fulfil my needs.

    See my new wheels I touch on turns and when I get on the gas. I'm running 10x15 wheels with right now a 295/50R15 I'm gonna change it soon, so on the leafs I was planning on adding a inch.

    I've got them both along with their shocks. Happy so far, but I haven't put them to the test yet.

    I run the CalTrac bars with three leaf springs and KYB gas shocks and MT drag radials. They work great! On the street I have my Caltrac bars backed off to allow for a better ride.

    I listed the drag radials because that is what I need on the track. CalTracs have zero impact on my Comet at the track with street tires. The wheels just spin like the car is on ice due to the bars ability to make the hit directly to the tires and not the other suspension components. At least that is my theory.

    Running the drag radials on the street when it rains is wicked scary. The rear of the Comet starts to move around as there is not enough traction to overcome the resistance caused by the water pushing against the front tires. Maximum speed in a down pour is 45 mph. Even then, it is a white knuckle drive. Scares the hell out of my wife. Conversation stops immediately!!!!
