? about draglites This is probably the stupidest ? but have to ask. I mounted my draglites for the first time and forgot to mount my center caps. I was driving to the track and it wasn't comfortable, because it felt like my car wasn't aligned. Is it important to have those center caps. Or is it my wheels. I did get them used.

Center caps won't do anything, it's just there for apperance purposes. You see plenty of people without those center caps on. I would look at other things that may be causing the issue..

You haven’t directly answered the bias-ply or radial question but since you mentioned tubes I assume you have bias-ply rear tires. The instability you are feeling is caused by these tires - not the wheels - not the alignment. Bias-ply drag tires are intended for straight line acceleration on dry pavement. You need to slow down and be extra careful when driving on these tires. You should run these tires at 25-28 psi on the street.
