    Haven't been over here in a while ... suspension help!

    Let me know what you think I am not doing right.









    second half of the video:
    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Expwzo7gRY4"]YouTube- MIR Track Rental 3/20/09[/ame]

    Setup:
    strange adjustables all the way around. Front full loose, rear settings where between 3 and 5 got some advice that the rear was not seperating enough so bumped up to 5 in the rear.
    14" 175s up front and stock GT rear springs.
    Steeda adjustable upper control arms (at -3*)
    HPM megabite jr. lowers

    Best on the same pass:
    60': 1.497
    1/4 ET: 10.92 @ 126

    Best MPH of the day was almost 128.

    Now there is a ton left in this car with that MPH the ET should be 10.7 ... correct? I had some advice to power shift the car and that might be the solution, but I don't think I am good enough to pull that off right now.

    anti-roll bar would help.

    And powershifting is a must for best ET's

    What's the incrementals look like on the 10.92 pass? What's it MPH-ing the eighth?

    I'm interested in seeing the 330' incremental because the 60' is sometimes misleading when trying to diagnose what's going on with a run.

    1.49 is a good sixty for that ET you also could use a anti roll bar
