Default drag radials with no SFC??

hey guys well... my MT ET STREETS just arrived today and will be mounted probably within the week... im excited for the race season to open up... but my car has no sub frame connectors... i have a set of weld in's... im jusdt waiting for one of the frame machines at work to open up for a weekend so i can put them in... my question is... if i race with the drag radials with no subframe connectors is this a really bad move... im not trying to have leaky t-tops and it is a t-top car... any help is appreciated...

I have a t-top car and have gone to the track on slicks pulling the front wheels no leaks from my t-tops or any other notable damage, But a buddy of ran his fire chicken on drag radials and put waves in the rear quarter panel.

I raced mine to 12.4 with no problems on 275-17 et streets. The t-tops always leaked from a wreck before i bought it but i never really noticed an increase in them leaking

ok thanks guys... yea i have the dents in my 1/4's as well.... but thats ok... so im getting the impression that if i run on them a few times without the sfc's i should be ok... my car isnt anything crazy... mostly bolt ons...

For the 160 bucks, and a lil labor, you should get them ASAP, I am literally broke so I have to wait as well
