You do not have a 10 or 11 sec big tire bracket car. Cars w/ a lot of power don't need help lifting the frontend. If it lifts fast it will unload the rear.

One example I remember reading from another thread...picture yourself standing on a bathroom scale holding one end of a 10 ft. long board. If you try to lift the other end of the board off the ground by yourself, you're gonna be putting a lot of weight down on the scale. Now, if someone helps you lift from the other end, there will be less weight forced down on the scale. The front springs/torsion bars/whatever don't need to help lift the front on a high powered car.

One thing Monte Smith keeps preaching is tightening up the front end of these cars.
Running mid 9s N/A, my car would not hook at all w/ a pair of those super loose 90/10 Calvert front shocks on it. Put my old Lakewoods back on, which are quite a bit stiffer, and it hooked great.

Ever notice most fast cars have very little, if any, front travel?
