LSD or drag pack for the strip?

What's up, fellow 1ers? Hoping to get some info/advice! Would it be better to buy a drag pack to use solely on the drag strip every so often or get an lsd?

I'm running DCI, FMIC, ER chargepipe, catless DPs, catless mids, and a PTF e48 tune (just on track days). Unfortunately my best run last night was 12.5 115, 2.2 60ft on 235/40r18 Pilot Sport A/S 3s. Last evening was just horrible... Low 90s, DA of a little over 3,000ft, and around 70% humidity. My previous best on 93 was 12.6 113, 2.1 60ft. The weather/DA was slightly more accommodating that day.

Get drag radials on some 17's. Your 60' will be fine.

Sounds good, man. I was always under the impression that an lsd will help more in a road course/autocross more than in the dragstrip.

LSD will deliver the power to both rear wheels equally
