Finally scaled the car and squared up the chassis with my new alignment equipment. The car never went more than 8" or so off the ground and seemed to unload the tires very quickly after the launch. Now its a couple of feet up and carries them out 20 feet or so. Nice surprise for very little adjustment (in my opinion)

It is magic when both tires are working together..

What were your final quarter weights and pre-load if any? What was it before ? Do you know what fixed it?
Thanks Mike

Yep, scaling a car pays off. Every time we have scaled buddies cars the first pass has been a record best pass for numerous drivers & cars.

I dont have the corner weights in front of me but I know it was 57.28% front and 42.72% rear distribution. Front was about 100# heavy on the drivers side with me in it, race ready. And exactly 55lbs more on the right rear. Also went from 7.5psi to 6.25psi and two clicks stiffer on the QA1's. After reviewing the video I can see the rear does a little bounce after the front is done rising and then the car gently back down. Seems to me like the shocks are being fully extended.
I havent really had time to get back under and check.
Thanks for the kind words
