The car before you had a spinning problem, if I'm hearing right, so maybe it was something on the track or lack of track preparasion (SP?) Does it do it (jerk to the right side)all the time? if so then it is something in the cars drive train and not the track

I really don't think you have a suspension problem it is just too bad for that.the rear end would have to be off a mile to do that.I think it is in your third member be it spool, locker or what ever,looks like only one axle is driving.I have a guy I set up his 8.60 door car for,we had it leaning strait as an arrow.He had to pull the rear end for some reason and when he put it back in he pre loaded it the wrong way and it still did not look as bad as what your car does leaving.with the front wheels up the rear steers the car I don't think you could get it in that crooked.


God made cold beer,good friends,hot ladies and race cars don't spit in his face by pi$$ing and moaning about how life sucks!!!

Looks to me like driver rear is a little higher in the back then the passenger rear. Not sure of what suspension you have but you could try some preload in the passenger rear. If you got the car on scales it might show that you are light on the passenger rear. Watching the car in the water box it looked to me like it was going to pull right on the hit. Nice car by the way.
