True Bracket Car vs True Street Car....

I drove a '69 barracuda on a 1000 mile trip with welded spider gears in a 7.25 rear end. Isn't that the same as a spool? I didn't have any issues.
Well, get to welding then, who needs a sure grip for the street, when you have a welder or a cheap spool.
I can't believe anyone would advocate using a spool on a STREET CAR.
600 hp at the tire and a 14" slick on the brake and a spool. LOL
