I raced cars with drums for years 10 inch A body and 10 inch E body but when you start running faster than 110 mph depending on the length of track and turn outs it can get interesting especially if you already used them dumping at the stripe. I recently switched over to Wilwood front disc and was happy with the front weight loss, and they work. They may not be in your budget but its a thought. also I know there are many people who have run much faster with drums its just up to you. Good luck with your decision.
