Default Driving with a spool

Hey guys im getting a B16 trans and am probably going to be putting a spool in it. I do still drive the car on the streets that doesnt bother me, but I am a little more worried about getting the car to turn once i have slicks on it. Ive driven cars will spools in the rear and my jeep which has lockers front and rear but they all have power steering lol. My track at the top end you pretty much have to make a hard left hand turn around a guard racing 180*. Wasnt sure if id even be able to make the turn or if im just over thinking this.

It sucks and its not worth it. Driving it around the pits making tight turns to your trailer. Its stupid it feels like your going to break an axle so much stress. I had one and it sucked!
