    what sort of suspension are you running? and what tire pressures?

    I have an used Autotech mkIII hollow bar, I'd sell it to you cheap...shipping would be interesting.

    For the previous chump car which was a 4cyl; we ran Mike Ogren's axles. He uses stronger cages, slightly smaller balls, and a quality grease. I am sure he can do the same for VR axles. Otherwise DSS makes them for the high HP drag guys.

    Im using bilstein struts front springs are 800lbs rears are 650 with no bars front or rear. Definitely need a rear bar and i was thinking maybe even a little more front spring but gonna start with a rear bar and go from there. The last time at LRP i was running 3.8 degrees of camber driver front and 3.5 on the passenger and was using the inside curbing. The car was very hooked up and i was on my "a" game. I run hoosier R6 225/45/15 with hot pressures 40 but temps are at 200 even across the tire. Thinking im gonna try some different tires next year any suggestions? I was gonna try the good years and maybe even do a 205 in the rear to help the car rotate a little more. Any suggestions are welcome. I turned a 102.1 ( first in class) at LRP so im right where i need to be with the set up now. But faster is better:026:

    Tim. You have my book , dont you?
    If not, it will pick you up maybe .5 sec at LRP, just with the DRS.
    It also covers the axles and much more.
    I have gone to 195 rear tires on the DOT cars. MM

    One of the areas in the "Latest search for speed";
    Toe out the LR, Esp for heavy right tracks like LRP.
    All of my cars have gone faster with asymmetrical alignments.
