Quote: I don t doubt that this car will be a whole lot of fun to drive but if this is a new build why start with leaf springs why not develop some type of road race 4 link?
Simple reasons really...
1) I don't think it's necessary. 2) I don't want to pay for it, new developments aren't free. 3) It's much more fun to beat people and say I still have leaf springs.
Being the underdog is much more fun and a lot more rewarding to me.
I'm not against leafs just know my Hotchkis rears were overwhelmed with an engine similar to what's in the Taxi. 2nd gear roll ons the driveshaft would hit the floor. And my pinion angle was nose down enough to cause vibration letting off the throttle at 80 mph or more. Yes I have a longer than stock driveshaft, and its 3.5" diameter, but still that stuff doesn't help me to be fast.
